Brand New Replacement Cassette Drive Belts for Spectrum +2, +2A and +2B

THIS PACK CONTAINS 2 IDENTICAL BELTS

These belts are replacement belts for the larger belt on the Spectrum +2 (grey model) and for the single belt on the Spectrum +2A and +2B (black models).

The Spectrum +2 (grey model) has two belts, a large and a small one.  The small belt rarely needs changing, but if you need this as well, both belts are available as a set in a separate listing in our Shop.

The cause of poor loading performance on the +2 range of Spectrums is often due to stretching and wear of the tape mechanism drive belt

The old belts stretch over time and now slip causing loading problems.  Also, when stood unused for many years, the belts develop a "kink" where the belt has rested, not moving, over the capstan. This kink becomes a permanent feature in the belt causing it to jump when the drive is used again.

The belts supplied are brand-new replacements, as close as is possible to the design and size of the originals, but made from modern, more resilient materials. They have been tested extensively on this machine and work perfectly.

Manufactured in Germany, they are of premium quality. They are not the cheap, terrible quality things from the Chinese belt bundles so widely available now.

A full service kit is also available in the shop with all the equipment you need (including belt) and full colour instruction manual.

Please note - the free delivery service offered is the Royal Mail 2nd Class Letter, Large Letter or Small Parcel depending on the product.
Important - Royal Mail recently changed the 2nd class service to be a cycling 2 deliveries a week the first week, then 3 deliveries a week on the second week. Deliveries have also been stopped on Saturdays.This also applies to collections from post boxes and collection points.
This has had a big impact on delivery service, and we are now seeing lengthy delays, with deliveries taking 5 - 12 working days.
 
If you need faster delivery than this, we strongly recommend using the 1st class service offered at checkout, or the Tracked services which are also available.
