Product description
The MK7 steel timing belt pulley is a drive element for belt drives with a 5 mm belt width. The 20 teeth engage with the timing belt and the shaft or axle, enabling precise, backlash-free transmission of rotary motion without slippage.
The pulley is secured to a 5 mm shaft with a set screw, while the steel construction ensures high load-bearing capacity. This makes the pulley suitable for applications with continuous loads or higher torques, such as those found in robotics project kits or test rigs for gear mechanisms.
Typical applications include linear axes in 3D printers, traction drives for test setups, or positioning gearboxes in laboratory setups. The steel design also withstands extended continuous operation. Operation requires a suitable 5 mm belt, a drive for the opposite side, and a mounting mechanism that supports the pulley.
Safety information
The pulley is a mechanical component for prototyping, testing, and development purposes. For drives operating at higher speeds or under higher loads, safety devices must be provided to prevent crushing injuries and contact with rotating parts.
