Default Noise from compressor...can I bypass it?

I have a 1994 integra rs. I want to bypass the compressor and was wondering if anyone new the size belt I could use? Is this possible? The problem is the compressor is making a VERY loud noise. I'm afraid the belt could snap if the compressor locks up. Thanks!!

the bearing in the a/c clutch is about to go, you can buy a new clutch to instead of changing out the whole compressor

Would it be cheaper to just bypass the compressor? A/C doesn't work anyway.

You can just take the a/c belt out. The alternator and power steering each have their own dedicated belts.
