c6501 Transfer Belt

[pudgi300]

Bought 3 PM kits for c500 and when got down to my last one found out it had a c6501 belt in it instead of a c500 belt. I didn't realize it till i looked in the trash for the P/N for the C500 belt. The c6501 belt is working fine and looks great. My question is there any difference between the belts. Also anyone notice difference in after market c6500 c6501 transfer belts compared to Konica belts. I also have c6501 so i can still reuse this belt if there is a problem. Good c500 belts a becoming hard to find that are not rotting away. Thanks for any info on this.

Re: c6501 Transfer Belt

I did measure the belts and they are exactly. Can someone point out a difference in the manufacturing process. If you buy Konica c500 belt a lot of them have bad inner tracking rails. They fall apart like gummybears. Also you can buy C6501 belt cheaper then C500 belts.

Re: c6501 Transfer Belt

Three more C500 pm kits with rotten sticky inner race transfer belt. Got them cheep but belt on lasted 4 days. So the question is. Does anyone know the difference between a C500 belt and a C6500 or C6501 transfer belt. I did measurement on them and they are the same. I have installed and calibrated a C500 with the C6501 belt. Just looking for some info

although the part # is different they are both called 861L so they are the same with improvments
