I have a set that lasted 19 years and are Chevron 3 ply. I rolled one belt last year and the others were worn and started to crack some. I replaced with new belts which were just under $1,100. Rolled 48 bales and had a oak stick about the size of a nickle dia. and about a ft. long get inside the pickup reel. The stick flipped the pickup teeth back on that side of the reel and no hay loaded in that side of the baler. It ruined the entire set all because of that little stick. I know a guy that had that happen to a new NH baler this spring too. What belts that didn't stretch on one side and the others moved over the belt guides and split the belts. make you want to cry. LOL
If you loosen the belts when the baler is not in use and keep it out of then sun when stored the belts will last 20 years or more. Just don't pick up any sticks.
We don't normally have sticks in the hay fields but high winds after the hay was knee high this spring blew pieces of limbs 80-100 ft. across the fields. I got all I saw but some were down in the hay and couldn't see.
