Hi - I’m looking for the drawer transport drive belt dimensions for an NAD 541i. I’m asking instead of simply measuring the belt since I’m not currently having a transport drawer drive belt issue, and would like to avoid dismantling the unit simply to measure the belt. Im asking since I’m in the process of ordering a replacement belt for a c521 , and While i’m at it I’d also like to order up a spare belt for the c541i to have on hand. I’ve already searched the web and the forum. I’ve identified the part #, but purchasing and OEM is seriously expensive, and I know that I can use an appropriately sized o ring or generic sbs belt. Thanks!

"I just fixed one of these.
Made in China in 2000. Rubber belt dried up.
Went to Ace hardware and got o-ring #29 in plumber's section
My NAD works like new again. "
Yes - I had previously found and read that thread before posting. However, the most specific the thread gets is “ace hardware #29”. The Ace website lists no such thing. I’ve also searched for what make / model of transport that NAD used for the 541i, thinking that if I could ID that I could have alternative search paths.
Thanks, JF

I think you have to go into an Ace store and look at the display.
The #29 is a certain vendor's part number, not Ace's.
#29 is a standard o-ring size. Ace stores tend to have different stock, and afaik their website is mostly useless since they're franchise stores. You might be able to find it at Home Depot or Lowe's even.

Did you find the dimensions in the end?!! Am looking at a cheapish Nad 541 and needs a new belt, I can measure that one (suspect the boil for a few seconds method should be ok in the first instance!
Need a new drive belt for NAD C541 ???
