Looking for lathe drive belt size

https://www.3vbelt.com/product/255l-timing-belt/ is an example of what you need.

Pitch is .375" My KC1022ML has a 263L . If your pitch is .375 then this is it. Just need to figure the length although if the setup is the same as Grizzly G0602/0752 and King KC1022ML then you have some adjustment of that pulley on the mounting plate (should be in a slot). Having a pic of the actual arrangement would easily verify that.

An advantage I had when I ordered mine from msc direct was that I was able to read the part number on the original.

You not being able to do that will make it very difficult.

"In my opinion", the good news is that they are probably not that expensive (mine were downright cheap so I ordered two). If so, you can prolly afford to order one of each size surrounding what you think you need. You might be able to get close with a flat tape measure (seamstress style) too.

If you need me to, I could measure my actual new pitch vs my old used pitch as well to give you some idea of how that might play out. In my case, the new belts were significantly tighter than the original.
@Susquatch Thanks that's a great offer. Unfortunately he's at the point where if ordered belts don't fit he will go with the pulley conversion and be done with it.

With what's left of old belt he came up with ~590mm circumference. Sieg belt specs are 1.5x124tx15mm. The m1.5 series is 4.71 pitch (from one of the previous posted links). 4.71X124 teeth=584mm and the 15mm width was same as his. Tooth profile seemed to match as well. Educated guess but he felt comfortable enough with numbers to place order. Due to arrive mid november-mid december. Stay tuned, if that size does fit your machine, may have some for sale cheap...

EDIT: More specs in this link. https://www.zzr-parts.com/modulus-s...h-replacement-drive-synchronous-timing-belts/

It's 4.71mm pitch then propriety 124 tooth length.
Sorry, no I didn't read through it. It's quite a skill, both in finding the name of the part and then a supplier.
Thanks. The Chinese definitely seem to have a different way of doing it. Maybe it was pre ISO?
