3/16" (4,8 mm) is too narrow.

My information on belts:

  |Belt Function  | Quantity |  Size   |
  |---|--|-|
  | Power Steering|1 | 13A1145 |
  | Air Conditioning  |1 | 13A0925 |
  | Alternator/Water Pump |2 | 11A1030 | *
  |---|--|-|

   * My 1980 300SD came with two 11A1030 alternator belts. There are
 two sizes of belts available on a Euro parts website: 10A1025 and
 10A1035 (I don't recall which website). Since the 10 mm belt
 available will ride lower in the pulley than the 11 mm belt the
 car came with, the shorter belt is the correct one.

From an earlier inquiry to Gates:


Specifications for the Gates Automotive Aftermarket belts you inquired
about:

9395 -  Outside Circumference - 39 7/8" (1012mm), top width 1/2"
(12.5/13mm)

9405 - " "- 40 7/8" (1038mm),   "   "   1/2" 
(12.5/13mm)

7405 - " "- 41 1/8" (1045mm),   "   "   3/8"
 (9.5/10mm)


Have a look at

https://www.autohausaz.com/catalog?v=1193789=4=8900=1

It shows

Continental ContiTech V Belt/Drive Belt; Alternator | 10X1035 OEM
2 per engine.

If you don't need it immediately, go to one of the Internet's Mercedes
parts providers:AutohausAZ
RMEuropean
FCPEuropean
or even RockAuto

(I'm sure others can list more on-line sources.)

Try NAPA. Autozone employees are one step up from zombies.

[MBZ] Dual pulley alternator belts

2024-03-26 Thread Michael Esh via Mercedes
Could anyone help or direct me to a source for the correct alternator belts for 
my 1982 240D. It has a donor engine that may have come from a 1984 300D and it  
has dual belts that run from crank pulley to alternator.

One of the belts was destroyed and I pulled the other one off to measure it.  
There are no numbers or manufacturers name on the belt. 
It measures 40.25” when measuring out side of the belt from mark to mark. Width 
of belt is 3/16”

The sales person at autozone measured it using a belt measuring tool fixture 
and told it me it was 390 x 9.  He looped it around the two ends of the tool 
and then stretched it out.  He did not have any belts that were close to the  
correct size.  

Is there a correct way measure so I can order the correct belt?  
Is there a site that lists their belts by size?
Or if anyone could point me to a part number I would like to order a couple of 
them.

Thanks for any help,

Mike
