Myford ML8 Drive Belt

For the Myford ML8 lathe the new, improved metal-pin T-link belting is ideal. It's a sectional belt so no dismantling is needed to fit it. For lathes on the maker's stand 1.2 metres is the length needed. If mounted on a home-made bench with a thick wooden top, 1.3 metres is usually sufficient. The width required is 1/2" (13 mm) = an "A" section.

Myford ML7 Lathe Drive Belts

1) Motor to countershaft belt (about 10mm wide). The best belt for this is the NuT-Link Type with metal pins. Link belts help to reduce the vibration usually passed from a single-phase motor to the lathe
2) Countershaft to Headstock spindle belt (about 13 mm wide) For the ML7, the T-link type is too stiff and using the a "Power Twist" type is recommended. 
3) Select your required belt - but, if you would like both, they need to be ordered individually, i.e. complete one payment, then go back to this page and make the other.

Colchester Chipmaster Belts

Drive belts for the Colchester Chipmaster and the HARRISON Lathe AA Mk. 1 (a lathe identical to the Chipmaster). No belt details are given in the boxes below becasue the belts fitted to these lathes varied over the years. Hence, it's best to phone 01298-871633 to discuss what you need.

Betalon Multiply Flat Belting

The ideal installation for any machine tool is an endless Betalon-Multiply belt: these are light in weight but immensely strong and stretch resistant. They absorb shock loads well, have a high coefficient of friction, enjoy a proven record of reliable industrial service and can be made in almost any combination of length and width.

Kennedy Hexacut Saw Belt

For the more common Kennedy "Hexacut" Model 60 hacksaw the flat belt is normally 1" (25 mm) wide and 21.8" long (554 mm) - however, because the size may have changed over the years, it would be safer to measure yours to get an exact figure. As the belts are custom-made, if you order the wrong length a refund is not possible. 
An accurate measurement can be taken around the pulleys with a strip of paper stretched around, overlapped, marked, and then carefully measured.

Nu-T-Link V-Belt

This is the superior replacement for the original "Brammer" black-fabric "round-end" link-belting that was held together with mushroom-headed metal pins each (usually) stamped with a letter "B". The new belts have only a slight curve to the end of each link and the head of the pins are now "T" section.

Power Twist V-Belt

A new development of an old idea - a link belt without metal fasteners. This is highly effective on all lighter machine tools and especially useful on precision lathes and millers where a "softer" drive, free from vibration, is appropriate.

Boxford & South Bend Backgear Shaft

Boxford & South Bend Backgear 24-tooth Shaft. We can supply - on a service-exchange basis - a backgear shaft fitted with a new steel gear. The large gear can be knocked off to save postage (though some early shafts were one piece). Early gears have a 14.5-degree pressure angle and have no markings to show this. Later gears are 21 degrees and in this case the shaft is stamped "21" - though it's sometimes hard to see. We can supply both types.

Fobco Star Drill - new chuck

This chuck has the correct female taper for the Foco Star drill with the "fixed chuck" taper on the end of the spindle. Minimum holding capacity 1.5mm, maximum holding capacity 16 mm.

To view the available sizes and in other applications. The post price covers the shipping of three belts. Click the down arrow in the box showing the 375 to see the range of sizes available. The "teeth" on the inside of a belt are not drive teeth, but cut-outs that allow the belt greater flexibility when running around small-diameter pulleys.

Boxford and South Bend 100/127t inch to metric conversion gear

Boxford, South Bend & Smart & Brown 100/127t inch-to-metric screwcutting transposing gear. This gear set will convert all imperial (inch) belt-drive Boxford lathes (except the late VSL Type), the South Bend 9-inch and the Smart & Brown Sabel, SAB and S lathes to cut metric pitches. Presently, this gear is only available as two separate gears that need pinning, together - a simple process.

Round Leather Belting

Early lathes, light-duty milling machines, drills, Singer and other makes of sewing machine and assorted power tools were often driven by a round leather belt, sometimes referred to in contemporary literature as a "gut" drive. This type of belting is also used in furniture and similar products. It is still available and usually in stock for immediate delivery. The belt colour is actually a light tan - and far lighter than shown in the photograph. Please note: the stated diameter of the material is nominal i.e. the measurement might be a little under or over the given figure.

Boxford VSL Boxford Lathe Vari-speed belt

Boxford VSL Boxford Lathe Vari-speed belt. Unfortunately, the exact belt is no longer available but one close can be supplied. In order to obtain the whole speed range, this will need 1/4" (6mm) packing piece between cross-shaft and hangers to increase the distance to the motor. However, this is not essential as only a little of the slowest speed will be lost if the belt is fitted "as-is". Sent insured by Royal Mail Special Delivery.

Boxford -South Bend- Raglan T-slotted Cross Slide Casting

A high-quality, English-made casting to make a T-slotted cross slide for Boxford and South Bend "9-inch" lathes. It is also possible to make a T-slotted slide for other 4 to 5-inch centre height lathes - in the case of the Raglan "Little John" and "5-inch" it can only be used as a boring table as it is not possible to mount the top slide on it. Machined only on the top surface these castings are long-term stored and so very stable - but they do need cleaning before machining.
