Thanks. So far, everyone I ask says ask TEAC. Teac says the part is discontinued.

Reel to Reel Tape Machines / Tension arm roller and cap for X-2000r
« on: February 11, 2010, 12:07:33 PM »
Looking for the tension arm roller and cap for this unit. I know the roller for the X-1000 will not cross on this item but wondered if the parts for the X-7 will. Does anyone here have a spare to sell, know of a used/new parts stock or have info on a cross reference. Thanks so much,

Well...perhaps I'm stretching the belt on my measuring card...because...
On my second deck...having the same problem, the belt sent to me by TEAC once again would not allow the unit to fast forward or rewind accurately nor would it switch position on the capstan pulleys.
I ended up digging out a new spare belt from overstock that was .5 inch bigger (by my measurements) and the deck now works perfectly.
Again...neither deck will work with TEAC supplied belts.
One deck having a particular problem I understand...not both. I dont doubt your expertise but I'm just saying that the decks here in my shop will not operate correctly with TEAC supplied belts but work perfectly with belts that are .5 inch bigger.

First time poster and I really appreciate the professional help posted here. I was able to get my 2nd unit running well as a result but I have some VERY INTERESTING info about TEAC belts.
I ordered two pinchrollers and a belt from TEAC USA and installed them...unit STILL displayed the problem of tape play between the pinch rollers. When I compared the NEW belt to the old one, I discovered that the old one was 17.5 inches in diameter and the new was only 17 inches. The new belt would not allow the belt to switch positions on the capstan pulley wheels in the back. After cleaning up the old one and re-installing, the unit operated perfectly.
These belts are DIRECT from TEAC...
