Does anyone know where to source the tray belt for a Wadia 21 (Teac)


Greetings all,

Having some issues with the transport mechanism in my Wadia 21.  I found a replacement gear for the two step gear in the tray,which was shot, but having trouble locating a new rubber belt for the tray mechanism. I believe it is a Teac sourced part, “loading belt” - part number 5801571500.

Does anyone know of a potential source or know if an equivalent/generic belt can be used?

Thanks for the help,

Joe

Excellent lead.  Now I just need to learn Italian and I should be all set! I will give it a shot.

Thanks for the help,

Thanks for the response and information.  Perhaps there is still hope that I can get the Wadia up and running vs. turning it into an expensive and heavy paperweight.

Kind regards,

Joe
If you have the worn or broken belt, you should be able to find a generic O-Ring belt which will work.
The main keys are total size and the diameter/cross section of the belt.
And actually for a non critical application like a drawer, the belt thickness can be a little off and no problem.
