Washing Machine Belts
Keep your washer spinning smoothly with our range of genuine and high-quality compatible washing machine belts. We stock popular sizes and profiles (J, H, PJ poly-V) to suit leading brands including Hotpoint, Indesit, Bosch, Beko, Whirlpool, Zanussi, Miele, LG and AEG. A worn or stretched belt typically causes a slow, noisy or non-turning drum; replacing it is a quick, low-cost fix compared with a new machine.
To select the correct belt, match the code printed on your old one (e.g., 1158 J5, 1270 J5, 1966 9PHE) or check your model number. Poly-V belts with more ribs provide extra grip for higher-spin machines, while correct length and rib count ensure proper tension. Our belts are engineered for durability and easy fitting with basic tools. Order today for fast UK delivery and bring your washing machine back to full performance.

Q1. How do I identify the correct washing machine belt?
Check the code printed on your old belt (length + rib type + ribs, e.g. 1158 J5) or match it by model number on the product page.
Q2. My drum won’t spin — does that mean the belt has snapped?
Usually yes, though it may also be stretched or the motor/tensioner may have failed. Inspect the belt for cracks or slackness.
Q3. What’s the difference between J-section and H-section belts?
The rib pitch. J-section is finer and standard on modern machines; H-section is slightly coarser and used on some older models.
Q4. Can I use a belt with more ribs than the original?
No — the rib count must match your pulley grooves to maintain correct alignment and grip.
Q5. How can I fit a new belt easily?
Hook the belt over the motor pulley first, then rotate the drum pulley by hand to walk the belt on. Always unplug the machine before working.

Hotpoint Genuine Tumble Dryer Drive Belt
Old tumble dryer back to life!
My old Hotpoint dryer (40 yrs) is now working again after the original belt decided enough is enough.
Good service from Yourspares has saved me from having to buyi a new dryer, which I didn’t want to do as they’re expensive these days and don’t have the features of my existing one unless you pay a lot!

Beko Polyvee Tumble Dryer Drive Belt 1966 9PHE | Compatible Replacement by Ufixt
Excellent product
Delivered quickly &, although tricky to fit, works perfectly. N.B. ALL these items need warming / stretching / levering / shouting at / etc. to get them on, so I was not expecting it to be easy. However, having fitted it four years ago, it is still going strong & saved a fortune not only on other similar suppliers, but avoiding the need to buy a new tumble drier!
