I sometimes use the Unimat motor, belt and bracket to drive a milling spindle where the pulley is smaller so the belt is looser... but it still works. Regards, Andy

As Andy indicated ... the shiny material should be fine That said: The rough-textured ebay version [which I would not be permitted to link] appears to be an excellent copy of a pricey Swiss product.
