Product Information:

Reduce vibration in any of your belt driven machines with the Power Twist Link Belt!

Reduce vibration in any of your belt driven machines with the Power Twist Link Belt! Common V-belts develop a "memory" and retain their non-operating shape causing annoying and unnecessary machine vibration. However, these specially engineered link belts do not develop a "memory", but retain their flexibility for smooth operation. Link Belt is 1/2" wide. Easily adjustable. Prepackaged 4' length. Includes instructions for use.


  • Reduces Vibration
  • Replaces 1/2" V-Belt
  • 4' Length

    Make sure your machine has a V-belt!

    Comments about 4 Foot of 1/2" Link Belt :

    I've given the belt a good rating because it does what it says it does. But after receiving it I found that my Grizzly band saw had a flat, grooved belt. The link belt has a flat side, which worked very well for a short time until the belt slipped off the pulleys. I lost some $$$ on this purchase. Let's call it an experiment. Make certain your machine has a V-belt before ordering and I think you will be happy.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

    Comments about 4 Foot of 1/2" Link Belt :

    Just a shade too wide for my Craftsman drill press. Dosen't show which side of the belt goes against the pulleys. Extremely hard to reinsert a link once removed.

    Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Comments about 4 Foot of 1/2" Link Belt :

    Installed this on my Delta contractor saw to replace the original v-belt. Balanced a dime on edge through start-up and shut-down. The cost at my local store was just $1.00 more than a comparable belt from a local industrial power transmission supplier that is twice as far away. Well worth the money. Wish I had done it years ago. The jointer will be next.

    Comments about 4 Foot of 1/2" Link Belt :

    I installed the Link Belt on my 10" Table saw and from the moment I turned it on I could tell the difference. The motor didn't jump as it did with the traditional type belt plus it really does run much smoother...as advertised. Great product I would definitely recommend the Link Belt to anyone who wants their machines to run quiter and smoother.

    Comments about 4 Foot of 1/2" Link Belt :

    Probably the one single thing you can do for any belt driven tools to run smoother and better. I put this on an old craftsman table saw and it runs quite and smoother. Do yourself a favor and buy this. Don't hesitate. It really works! Plus its adjustable, link by link. Who ever heard of an adjustable fan belt? This is one.

    Used these to replace old belts (18 years of use) on my Jet cabiniet saw. They seem to be working just fine, but time will tell better especially when I place them under heavy load.

    Doesn't work with Porter-Cable PCB270TS

    Comments about 4 Foot of 1/2" Link Belt :

    I'm sure this is a great product so this isn't a review of quality, I'm just letting everyone know that this won't fit a Porter-Cable PCB270TS. There isn't room for the thickness of this belt in there. But its all good, I bought it for the TS but I'll just throw it in the Jointer.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
