9X20 Drive belt breaking.

The gates belt is a 5M710 some machines have 730.
I managed to buy a PK3710 that ia a multi rib belt same diameter. I have sliced the 3 ribs so I now have 3 belts the vee angle is slightly steeper but seems to work OK have run it for quite a while will see how it goes. This is a cheap alternative and appears to be a stronger belt.
 
The 5M710 belt and a couple other 5M sizes, I use them on my K O Lee tool & cutter grinder, too.
