Wesmar 500SS side-scan drive-belt source

[Robert Lanham]

Looking for the source of the material for the drive-belt(carries stylus) in older Wesmar thermo-paper side-scan and/or someone who has a spare belt from a unit that's gone dead. The manufacture doesn't provide parts or service for the older units.Thanks

Got a belt thru Sture Hultqvist, can't thank him enough, and used it to find a virgin wreck in Alaska. Belt was way stretched and they had made a adjustable idler pulley to take up the extra belt beyond the units built-in idler pulley. Belt has since started to tear at the weld joint and trying to find out how to reweld it and OR have been told the belt material is available from McMaster. Checking on that. Bob
