crushers and mills, mining and quarry plant, big compressors and pumps, and heavy industrial machinery. We
stock E section belts from leading manufacturers, so you can choose the right belt for your drive. Search by
the code on the old belt, such as E240, and use the filters to narrow it down by length or brand.

Finding the right E section belt
Reading the codeE240 means an E section belt with a 240 inch inside length (6096mm). Metric sizes may show the inside length (Li) or the datum length (Ld), which on E section is 80mm longer, so check which your belt uses.
Which brand?Every belt here fits the same E section pulleys. Choose Optibelt for the longest life on hard-working or continuous drives, or a value brand for occasional-use machinery.
Is it really E section?An E section belt is 40mm wide and 23mm deep. If yours measures around 32mm wide, it’s a D section. Belts this size are often banded together on heavy drives.
Tip: on drives with two or more belts, replace them all at once with a matched set of the same brand. On shock-loaded drives where belts flap or turn over, ask us about banded belts.
