Ordering said belt from Delta is out of the question. Does anyone have a generic part number for this size belt? Thanks

If you can take your old belt to auto parts store. They'll be able to measure and maybe even supply you with new!

There are on-line calculators for the length of V-belts. You input the diameters of the pulleys and the distance between their centers and it will calculate the length.One is available on the Vintage Machines website-http://www.vintagemachinery.org/math/beltlength.aspx
It is a standard V-belt, nothing special.

I just put a link belt on my Dj20 yesterday, I highly recommend one. I bought it from woodcraft, most have them in stock, at least mine did.

I did the same on my DJ-20 a few years ago and have been very happy with it. Very easy to install.Originally Posted by Steve Wilde

+2 on the link belt suggestion. As soon as i purchased my used DJ 20 I installed a link belt and it was a great upgrade. Highly recommend you go this route rather than another v belt.

I put a link-type belt on my DJ-20 and it works great. You can get them at Rockler and Woodcraft stores.
