Looking for some odd size HTD belts. Does anyone know of a reliable supplier?

I’m always fairly happy with McMaster’s collection: https://www.mcmaster.com/htd-timing-belts

I’ve been using this company this season. Very happy with our shipping windows. 2-3 days even for Gates belt lengths that mcmaster does not carry.

I haven’t ordered from https://www.vbeltguys.com, but @AllenGregoryIV has name-dropped them a few times in Spectrum’s resources.

I’ve had good luck with vbeltguys both this year and last. They have just about any length/width/profile of belt you could ever want. Shipping is quick and reasonable too.

Thank you all. I looked at them all and v-belt guys was the easiest to find what i needed. They were also cheap and had cheap shipping. McMaster’s selection was a little limited.
FWIW I found this calculator to be very helpful https://www.technobotsonline.com/timing-pulley-distance-between-centres-calculator.html

Seconded. Polytech Design is awesome. They ship from out East (Jersey), usually ship same day via USPS priority so I get them within 2 days in Indiana. They have about every weird individual tooth count you could ever want on HTD belts.

I have used royalsupply.com for the last 7 years, always fast, and has a massive catalog of belts and pulleys.
When all other places are out of stock they have always had what I needed.

To save any one else a few minutes finding belts on https://www.vbeltguys.com/
Vex and WCP list by tooth count while vbeltguys sell by mm.
You can use the table found on Vex or screen shot to convert tooth count to mm (last column on right). Or simply do tooth pitch * tooth count. So a 100t belt is 100t * 5mm = 500mm.

Then to find the belt on vbeltguys search with the following format. BeltLength(mm)-5m-BeltWidth(mm). So for our 100t belt that would be 500-5m-09 or 500-5m-15, for the 9mm or 15mm version.
Thanks to @AllenGregoryIV for bringing this site to my attention.
Timing belts also appear to be on sale for the month of February.
