I’m looking for a new conveyor belt for my 16-32. I find several different suppliers on Amazon but I’m apprehensive to buy anything that is not OEM. Anybody have any experience with these?
Or any good suggestions?

Much thanks!

Hey Lance! I replaced the belt for my 10-20 with one of those. It's been great so far.

A timely thread for me as the feed belt on my 16-32 is getting pretty frayed at the edges. I'm looking forward to seeing what suggestions people have. Highland Woodworking has a replacement belt that looks more like the original one on my sander than the one Klingspor's offers: https://www.highlandwoodworking.com/drum-sander-conveyor-belt.aspx.

We have been using the Highland Hardware replacement belts for at least 5 years, on both the Jet/Performax 10-20 and the newer 16-32...no issues and Highland is responsive to customer requests.

Yep. I should have noted above, but mine is also from Highland.

I ordered the OEM Rubber belt, which I never really got to track well. But it was a nice belt, until I hit it with the drum, while it was running.

Ordered this years ago, and was just thinking I need to order another one.

Actually, I don't need to order one, I just want to. . .
