I have ordered 3/16th and 1/4 from McMaster Carr in the past. you buy it bulk cut it at an angle and melt it together.

I think its Mcmastercarr.com and look into belts or conveyor belting you should be able to find it online there.

Thanks Bruce. This method is working good for me, for now anyway. I'll have to see how good my splices hold up over time.

I would never have guessed that McM-Carr would carry that stuff (antistatic belts) but you learn something new every day....thanks!

Question, though. Their online catalog says to order by the inch of circumference (OC, or outer circle), implying that you get a finished belt and not a length needing end bonding/welding/gluing/whatever.... not true?
