Default Belts Radio Shack SCT-540

I need a source for drive belts for a Optimus / Radio shack Tape deck.

Cat # 140-0678

Model SCT-540

Reference #


44 12180378 Belt AF B90032
43 12180386 Use B6021 B90033
10551505 Belt Motor Drive B6021
42 12180394 Belt AFR B90034
41 12180402 Belt BFR B90035


Your best bet may be to measure the existing belts (inside
circumference, width or cross section, and wall thickness), subtract
around 5% from the circumference to compensate for stretching of the
old belt, and then purchase the closest-matching generic belt.

PRB seems to be the brand of choice for replacement belts. They carry
flat (ribbon-type), round, and square cross-section belts in quite a
variety of sizes.

http://www.russellind.com/client/download/belts.pdf seems to have a
pretty good overview of their offerings.

Lots of online sources - Vintage Electronics carries some, or see
