Alternativa V Belt for a Volvo MD2030

[Chanquete]

Hello
Given the price of Volvo parts, I'm wondering if there's an automotive-grade V-belt with the dimensions of the alternator belt for a Volvo 2030 engine.

Any information would be greatly appreciated

I would take the existing vee belt to a local power transmission supplier and ask them for a replacement.

Most vee belts are a common size some are Z section and with an increased sze of Zeta

Being you are Buenos Aires, Argentina

I believe the genuine VP belt is a Gates belt, so that's what I buy since they are very good even without the VP sticker

Gates 12.5mm belts are fine. You’ll have the length on the old one. Get these from Amazon, I do for my md2040

Just put the dimensions of the belt in to ebay .

Thank you all very much for the guidance.

I found the VP belts shed a lot of black dust on our MD2020, probably due to the extra load from a Sterling A2B. Replaced with a Gates Quadpower Belt from Bearing Shop UK (<£15) and no problem after that.
