Rubber open timing belt is a type of synchronous belt that is used in reverse drives to transform rotational movements into linear motions. It has high positioning accuracy and is an excellent alternative to chain or cable.

Timing belts come in many different types that are made out of a variety of materials. Each material has its own unique properties that make it a suitable option for a particular application.

Choosing the right type of belt is important because it will help the equipment to perform its best. It also helps to ensure that the belt will last a long time.

Polyurethane is a common choice for synchronous belts because of its natural greater elasticity and resistance to oil. It is also durable and offers energy efficiency.

Steel tension members are a standard with most of the polyurethane synchronous belts available. They are available in a variety of tooth configurations to suit the needs of the drive system.

The tooth profile determines the belt’s strength and flexibility. The profile must have a high number of teeth that are able to transfer torque to the pulleys.

Belts can wear out if they are not properly maintained or if they are exposed to dust and debris. These can cause abrading of the teeth and breakage of the belt. It is recommended to clean the belt regularly and replace the pulleys when needed.
