So, through some pure foolishness that was entirely my own fault, I've managed to snap the drive belt on my Triton surface planer. Unfortunately, no spares are available until March and I need one now. Can anyone with experience of such things point me in the right direction? My Googling hasn't gotten me anywhere so far! Thanks in advance.

I would suggest contacting a belt specialist. Give them the numbers/ measurements and they might be able to match it.
Alternatively if you have a local bearing stockist they might be able to source one as above or at least point you in the right direction.

Ebay, enter the number and belt or the make and model and belt

Edit

Had a google on EBay, not much

Looking at the PK number. PK = groove profile

I would except to see on your belt

5PK443

Tha 5 is the number of ribs

PK belt type

443 is the length

Are their spares department still useless then

I remember trying to get a drive belt for a belt Sander, I got the impression they don't actually do any spares.
