Hi Nick,
First place to check would be vac shops in your area, especially Royal dealers if there are any. Another possibility for the bag gasket (O-ring) would be your local hardware store, they could probably come up with a close (or exact) match. As for the belt, if no one has Royal belts over there, a Kirby belt will also work.

Jeff, I have to wonder if Nick took a Hoover Convertible belt or Eureka F&G belt (both round belts), if he just cut to the right length & use some glue to hold it in place? That to me sounds like it would make a perfect bag seal for the Royal.
Nick, the belts you want are the Royal Style 8 belt or Kirby 301291 belts. Both are knurled flat belts, they grip the motor belt pulley better & last longer than conventional flat belts, since the rubber can't become slippery on the inside & start to cause slippage. Both these belts are EXACTLY IDENTICAL, just different lettering, so just grab whichever one is cheaper or that you can buy in quantity cheaper. Rob | ||
