All the belts I have worked with were about 6 to 8 inches or so wide. We ran a small hammermill with a Farmall BN, made it grunt some, but it worked OK as I remember. Also, if memory serves, the belt was about 25 or 30 feet long. Been a long while and I was young, so I may be off a little. I don't remember anymore if we used a twist in the belt on that setup, but I do remember using a black stick of belt dressing on that belt.
On the size of your pulley, you need to determine the feet per minute the hammermill needs and compare that to the feet per minute your H's pulley runs. That info should be in an owners manual. If you can't find that info I suppose trial and error is all you have, just be careful.
