Belts for treadles and vintage industrial machines

I stock belting in four grades, these three:

and

LTB-H183
NEW PRODUCT
FOR 2019

This hide belting is the same dimensions as the budget belt but cut from the hide. There are some treadle cabinets and machines which perform better with a slightly thinner belt. These belts are supplied to me precut in 183cm lengths with the staple attached

 


LTB-B185

This budget belt is made from corected hide strapping and suited to light use on most domestic treadle sewing machines. This type of belting is perfect for machines that are mostly decorative or where longectivity is not an issue. I am phasing out this item in preference to the LTB-H183 hide leather belts.

 


LTB-O185

High quality 6mm (1/4") wide hide belting is available as pre-cut 185cm lengths or to any ordered lengh requied (I recieve it in 30m rolls) with staple supplied. Spare stapels are available (see price list). Full 30m rolls may be ordered but there will be a waiting time.

I also have offcuts in various lengths for hobyists. Price on enquiry.

 

Oak tan Leather Industrial Belting 7.5mm (5/16")

For treadle powered (185cm) and motor driven (110cm) or to any ordered lengh requied (I recieve it in 30m rolls) with staple supplied. Spare stapels are available (see price list). Full 30m rolls may be ordered but there will be a waiting time.

Staple Hooks

Dia 1.6mm for domestic and light industrial belting
Dia 2.0mm for industrial belting

Being made of leather, this is the one part which will need to be replaced every decade or thereabouts; simply cut to size and use an awl or a nail to create a hole, insert the joiner staple, then crimp down with a pair of pliers.
