Kim sells on Ebay, i think under Discount Abrasives [discount_abrasives@yahoo.com] I could be wrong though. Ill measure for myself when I get home, but I thought someone here might have them handy.

Lance 24 x 48 fits my 22-44 plus after I trim to 22" wide so that is not the right size for the 1632 machine. Just measure the one thats on the machine with a tape measure. Go right around to get the length. The width can't be more than 16" . I don't know what the length is.

I've been using these belts for about 6 mo. and they sure beat tearing up a $70 Perfomax belt. They work just fine.

For you guys , try industrial abrashives in Reading Pa
Do a search as they have a site. I use the no loading paper. Works pretty good as compapred to the oxides. I have not found anyone with as good a product or as cheap.
   Sometime you do get what you payfor

I've bought from Kim several times, the last purchase was for a conveyor belt for my Performax 25. It's a 1996 model and uses the small 13/16" drive rollers (new machines use 2" drive rollers). I ordered a 24 X 61-1/2", 100 grit belt and cut it down to 22-1/2" wide. It works great and the cost was $19 plus shipping.

I don't know about the conv belts. I use the no load in my belt sander. I use my friends timesaver. It has a 36 by 60 belt.
   I did use it on a 6 inch drum sander before I had access to this one. Works better than the alum oxides. The belt cleaner is also a great investment. Svae your wives crepe sole shoes.
