Timing Belt Pulley
Item Name Code (INC) 45487
![]() |
A pulley with regularly spaced grooves parallel to the pulley axis on the face. It is designed to be used for timing purposes such as to synchronize the igintion spark with the completion of the compression stroke of the piston.
Additional Information for Timing Belt Pulley
Timing belt pulleys are mechanical components used in power transmission systems to transfer rotational motion from a driving shaft to a driven shaft. They are specifically designed to work with timing belts, which are toothed belts that provide precise and synchronous power transmission.
Timing belt pulleys have teeth or grooves on their outer circumference that match the teeth on the timing belt. This toothed design allows for a positive engagement between the pulley and the belt, preventing slippage and ensuring accurate timing and power transmission.
These pulleys are commonly used in various applications, including automotive engines, industrial machinery, and robotics. They are often found in systems where precise timing and synchronization are crucial, such as in camshaft drives, conveyor systems, and printing presses.
Timing belt pulleys come in different sizes, materials, and configurations to suit specific application requirements. They can be made from materials like aluminum, steel, or plastic, depending on factors such as load capacity, operating conditions, and cost considerations.
In summary, timing belt pulleys are essential components in power transmission systems that work in conjunction with timing belts to provide accurate and synchronized motion transfer.
