You might consider taking a scrap of the material and give it a burn test though, just to check how flammable it is ?

Good idea. I took a piece of .035" Mig wire and heated it up to bright orange. On contact with the surface of the belt, it smoked like crazy and melted into the surface, but no flame. The next heat was more like you'd expect from a chip -  just up to a black. It melted in a bit, but again, no flames. I think it will work well enough. Pretty sure it will resist holes better than the original.

If you can't get one, make one.
