The Gates GT®2 timing belt is a 2 mm pitch, neoprene belt with nylon covering and fiberglass reinforcement, designed for synchronous power transmission. It is available in 3 mm, 6 mm, and 9 mm widths, with operating temperatures ranging from -30°C to +100°C. Breaking strength is 86 N per 1 mm of belt width, and working tension is 111 N for a 25.4 mm width. The belt features a metric profile and is sold in standard pitch lengths from 54 mm to 1660 mm, with corresponding tooth counts from 27 to 830. Special widths may be cut to size from stock sleeves.
For power transmission applications, a belt and pulley drive system are one of the most common and cost-effective methods used to transfer motion in a drive system. synchronous timing belts, with their defined pattern and evenly spaced teeth, mate with matching timing belt pulleys and idlers to drive motion in precision equipment. When synchronization between shafts is not a priority, V- belts are an excellent alternative. V-belts ride in the groove of compatible V-belt pulleys and idlers. Flat belts find considerable usage in applications requiring small pulley diameters, high belt surface speeds, low noise levels, low weight, and inertia. Round belts or O-Rings are used with grooved pulleys. A cable drive system is another means of transmitting synchronous motion. Consisting of an extremely flexible cable and uniquely grooved pulleys, the Synchromesh Drive system offers design possibilities previously not achievable. Timing belt and cable accessories, belt tensioners and tension testers assist in the maintenance and operation of a belt drive system.
