Gates GT2 Timing Belt
The timing belt is a bendable and flexible belt that has teeth in its inner surface. The belt is designed for the running of an engine or a machine over the matching of tooth pulleys or sprockets. In the high-powered mechanical devices where we desired high power transmission, we use these toothed belts in a wide array.
What is the GT2 Timing Belt?
A GT2 timing belt is an impressive way the transfer motion. It is designed for linear motion specifically which means it helps to transfer the rotational motion into the linear motion which is a difficult task but the GT2 belt is an excellent thing for the compilation of this task. Typically, GT2 Belt is a system of extension in the HTD system that has a great capacity for carrying the load.

HTD has developed applications for high torque drive but a lot of indexing or registration applications are not acceptable for precision. HTD drives are using small diameter pulleys that are required for the clearance of the HTD drive and to operate it properly. This toothed belt fits smoothly in the pulley groove and has no free space for the belt to move in the furrow at the move back of the pulley direction.

Benefits of the GT2 Timing Belt by Gates
1. Long life belt
A GT2 belt timing by Gates is wrapped with the cords of strong fiberglass that is providing flexibility. Flexibility is necessary for increasing the service life. Its deep and strong profile provides a great capacity for carrying the load. When we used it with a pulley it reduces ratcheting which is provided by a supplier licensed.
2. Registration
GT2 belt provides accuracy and timing for a flawless registration. That is no loss of capacity for carrying the load by torque.
3. Load-Carrying Capacity Increased
GT2 has a great capacity for carrying a heavy load. These load capacities exceed HTD making the GT2 belt is a good choice for accurate registration.
4. Quieter operation
The GT2 belt is specially designed with a tooth that has a grip on the pulley grooves and reduces noise and vibration.
5. Precise positioning
GT2 belt is designed for precision critical applications such as the printer, laboratory and money handling equipment, machine tools, computer, hand power tools, and sewing machine.
