Conveyor belt $$$$$$

[Alan in Little Washington]

Why are these things so expensive? I called Grizzly to see what a new conveyor belt would cost for my 24" dual drum sander. They want more than $250!!!!

Anyone have a local source for reasonably priced (like less than $100) conveyor belts? I'm looking for reinforced rubber/poly surfaced belt not an abrasive type belt.

i'm out of town this week. but McCleod Belting in Greensboro should be able to help you out. I have their number on my desk at work but not w/me. if you can't find it online let me know next week and i'll send it to you.

They are expensive, because they can get it from us woodworkers. Give Raleigh Durham Rubber and Gasket a call. They can probably hook you up.
