Belts

So I blew the belt on the newest 451 while trying to pump some of the HEAVY WET crap "snow" that came a few days ago. Grabbed the spare off the wall, It is a "Huskee" kevlar belt bought at Tractor Supply, bought a bunch of them over the years and they have been a good belt. Most were in somewhat ambiguous sleeves but had Huskee - Made in USA on the belt itself. Went in a couple days ago to grab a new spare. Looked at the sleeve "Made in USA" stamped on it. Tossed it in the cart, got home, went to hang it on the wall, HMM what's this. The logo on the belt itself shows A&I Products, and INDIA on it ?????????? So we went through that area again yesterday so I stopped in and looked at some other belts and most were A&I Indian made but in sleeves stating "Made in USA." So if you buy your belts in other places you may want to look closer than I did.
