If you know anyone in the Vending industry, try the rubbers from pinball 
machines. I've been using them for years on a device with a sewing 
machine type motor.

You could try Gohn Bros. who service the plain and Amish communities. They have
a round leather belt that goes on a treadle sewing machine. Their address is:

Gohn Bros.
Box 111
Middlebury, IN 46540-0111
219-825-2400

Good hunting!

I have used round O-ring cord from a bearing and seals place for the
round belt on my treadle leather sewing machine. Works fine.

check with Bearings Inc.. Since I don't know where you are, the toll free
number in my area is 1-800-258-7378. They are a national company and probably
have an office near you. These belts are made to order in whatever length you
want.
