Author Topic: need a couple belt numbers John Eickhof Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 588 From: Wendell, ID USA Registered: Jan 2000 posted 10-16-2015 09:00 PM                        I cant find my cross reference list so can anyone supply me generic belt numbers for the latest model simplex soundhead and 35 projector? I need a non strong number for the motor drive belt and the projector drive belt, they are the newer metric rounded tooth style timing belts. Thanks in advance!

The older ones used two different size belts.  |  IP: Logged Matthew Ortado Film Handler Posts: 20 From: Halethorpe, MD, USA Registered: Jan 2010 posted 10-17-2015 08:06 PM                     The newer models used the round tooth belts for both.  |  IP: Logged James Westbrook Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1133 From: Lubbock, Texas, Usa Registered: Mar 2006 posted 10-17-2015 11:26 PM                     The 1050s and 1060s used the same size belt for motor to soundhead pulley and soundhead pulley to projector. These were circa 1990 and 1994 Simplex heads with Five Star sound.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 10-18-2015 11:20 AM                     Just drive on up to Ketchum and swipe the belts off the XL projectors parked at the entrances to the theaters... No one is gonna miss them. Mark  |  IP: Logged John Eickhof Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 588 From: Wendell, ID USA Registered: Jan 2000 posted 10-18-2015 01:49 PM                        HaHa Mark! They're probably sun beaten and weather checked by now!! Just got a free turret head and soundhead for the museum! Someone needed the belts more than I did!!  |  IP: Logged Monte L Fullmer Film God Posts: 8367 From: Nampa, Idaho, USA Registered: Nov 2004 posted 10-19-2015 03:10 AM                     I used to buy those belts here in Boise at a local business since we had some 1050's converted and also Mil2K units. Tons cheaper than what WRONG would charge. -Monte  |  IP: Logged John Eickhof Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 588 From: Wendell, ID USA Registered: Jan 2000 posted 10-19-2015 06:54 PM                        Thanks all, got 'em on order!  |  IP: Logged
