Anodized aluminum has good corrosion resistance. Pulleys are MXL series (miniature extra light) and have trapezoidal teeth. The teeth match up with the grooves along the inside diameter of a timing belt in order to move components forward or backward. Select a pulley with a maximum belt width that’s the same or larger than your timing belt width.

Made from polycarbonate, these pulleys are useful in applications with weight constraints. All are MXL series (miniature extra light) and have trapezoidal teeth. The teeth match up with the grooves along the inside diameter of a timing belt in order to move components forward or backward. Select a pulley with a maximum belt width that’s the same or larger than your timing belt width.

Move belts forward and backward or stop and start them in precise positions, especially in areas where rust is a concern. The curved teeth on these high-torque drive (HTD) pulleys have more surface contact with belts than traditional trapezoidal teeth, which allows you to apply more torque without damaging belts. These teeth fit together seamlessly to prevent backlash, or unwanted movement of the belt on the pulley, for a smooth, quiet cycle. These pulleys are often used in 3D printing, machine tool drives, robotics, and other applications where precision is essential. They are also known as curvilinear belt pulleys.

Pair pulleys with an HTD timing belt that has the same pitch. The width of your belt should not be larger than the maximum belt width listed.

Aluminum pulleys will not rust in damp or humid environments, but water left on the surface will cause them to corrode.

For higher speed or higher torque applications, these GT series timing belt pulleys provide a more precise fit than HTD pulleys. Use them where accuracy is critical, such as in storage and retrieval systems or in robotics. Similar to HTD timing belt pulleys, their teeth are curved for high strength. The curved teeth create positive grip engagement with timing belts, so these pulleys do not require re-tensioning—unlike drives using V-belts or sheaves. And unlike chain drives, there’s no metal-on-metal contact, so these pulleys don’t require lubrication.

Anodized aluminum pulleys are lightweight and resist corrosion. They have a finished bore and come with set screws for mounting on shafts.

The current industry standard, these 20° pressure angle gears have thicker, stronger teeth than 14½° pressure angle gears. Compared to plastic gears and racks, they’re better for high-load, high-speed, and heavy duty applications. Also known as spur gears.

Combine gears with different numbers of teeth to change speed and torque in your assembly. Combine a gear and rack to convert rotary motion into linear motion. To minimize your footprint, mount one or more standard gears inside of an internal gear.

For components to mesh correctly, they must have the same pressure angle and pitch/module.

Brass gears and racks are easy to machine, so you can add your own mounting holes and make other alterations. They won't rust when exposed to water.

A former industry standard, 14½° pressure angle gears are often found on older machinery. Made of carbon steel, they have high strength and are better than plastic gears and gear racks for high-load, high-speed, and heavy duty applications.

Gears with teeth that are not hardened can be hardened to fit your application. Hardening a gear's teeth increases its wear resistance.
