Rockwell var speed drill press, belts

Awl--
With the clam-shell type sprung pulleys... what are they called??
The belt is approx. 1" wide, timing-type belt.
I know the width is important for achieving a speed range consistent
w/ the front dial.
But must it be a timing-type belt? Any other types OK?
The belt I took off (which may not be the right one!) says Bando Power
Max, with two numbers: 1130, and 1626V455. The belt measure 46.25"
outside.
Easy way to sleuth this particular belt down? Better alternatives?
My opinion on these Rockwell drillheads:
Proly perty neat before VFDs, and I always wanted one (now I got two,
on a three-gang table), but watch what you wish for, as they seem to
be noisey, power-greedy, general pita.
Stepped pulleys, even w/o VFD, seem more useful.
Oh well....
You mean one of these? http://www.hi-lo.com/
