I picked up a large box of belts. They are new old stock. The belt

The clear tape simply lets loose. We tried using standard plastic
packing tape which
is pretty strong stuff but that experiment did not test out. Just for
the sake of having
it handy, Gorilla duct tape went on and failed next.

Does anyone have a suggested tape or other fix so these belts are
usable?

There's a special tape used. http://www.adktapes.com/products.html
Probably end up costing more than it's worth to fix your belts.
