Ron Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Does anyone know of a supplier of fan (V) belts for classic vehicles? There is nothing between 17mm-22mm wide from modern supplies. My Tilly belt is about 3/4" (19mm). Thanks Ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Johns Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 (edited) Give Collector car parts a call, may have a belt in stock http://www.collectorscarparts-heathrow.co.uk/ Edited October 22, 2013 by Nick Johns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arcot1751 Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 My local tractor dealer has a huge board with virtually every belt known to man on ! Lots of farm machinery has belt driven parts so you may be lucky. I have never found one they couldn't identify so it's worth a try, good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Posted October 22, 2013 Author Share Posted October 22, 2013 Have you got a name/contact detail for this tractor firm please? Ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arcot1751 Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Have you got a name/contact detail for this tractor firm please? Ron Hi Ron, They are Chandlers of Belton, Main Rd, Belton, GRANTHAM, Lincs. NG32 2LX. 01476 590077. They may be too far from you to deal with but if you try and find a LONG established agricultural dealer in your area you may be surprised just what they have hidden away in the back of their stores ! Try to speak to the senior store man who are usually willing to go the extra mile to help. As I said earlier many farm implements of yesteryear relied on belt drive so you stand a good chance of finding something suitable. Good Luck.

Ron Posted October 22, 2013 Author Share Posted October 22, 2013 Hi Ron try Brammer, they are country wide and do just about evey belt / bearing / seals and loads more. http://www.brammer.co.uk/belt-drives.htm?sub-category=belt-drives.htm Thanks but a scan through their product range seems to be the same as the others. Nothing at 19mm (3/4"). I think it's a case of finding a (tractor) firm who have some old stocks. I'll keep looking. But I'll ring that firm in Lincoln first. It's not urgent......I just don't want to be beaten!! Ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mogmaner Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 You need to ring as web sites tend to list fast moving items, old stock tends to sit in corners till you ask the right person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woa2 Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Have you tried Air Conditioning/Heating dealers? I got some very good fan belts for my Ford V8 vehicles from a dealer in Newbury suggested by the Air Conditioning engineers at work. I had to take an old fan belt and they matched it up, wasn't cheap but very good quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron Posted October 22, 2013 Author Share Posted October 22, 2013 The ferodo part number appears to be V130. 46.25 inside diameter Yes indeed Chris. That is the very number on my Tilly belt. Measured today by a local firm at about 47" inside, But probably stretched a bit. Have you got a name/number for that firm in Newbury?

Ron Posted October 22, 2013 Author Share Posted October 22, 2013 I just found this firm who list the belt I need. I'll await their reply to my email. Ron http://www.northwestclassic.co.uk/index.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
