What is Synchronous Belts
Synchronous belts are a specific type of toothed belt system that features a toothed pulley and corresponding belt teeth to transmit power via positive engagement. This precise engagement results in exact shaft synchronization, eliminating the speed loss and slippage often experienced with v-belts.
The teeth on synchronous belts possess distinct shapes, ranging from trapezoidal to curvilinear or modified curvilinear. These teeth interlock with the matching grooves in the pulley, facilitating positive power transmission at both high and low speeds, making them suitable for high-torque operations. To deliver optimal results and withstand the rigors of use, timing belts are designed to resist corrosion and stretch.
Types of Synchronous Belts
These belts are easier to install and change out because of their lower weight compared to other synchronous belts. Additionally, they can increase energy efficiency while eliminating the need for lubrication on metal wear.

The trapezoidal tooth profile ensures efficient power transfer and synchronization between the belt and pulley, minimizing the risk of slippage and speed loss. This tooth design is widely used in a variety of applications and industries due to its reliability and cost-effectiveness. However, it may generate more noise and experience more wear compared to other tooth profiles, such as curvilinear or modified curvilinear, which are designed for high-torque or high-speed applications.

The HTD (High Torque Drive) series in synchronous belts is a type of toothed belt specifically designed for transmitting higher torque loads compared to traditional trapezoidal toothed belts. The curvilinear tooth design allows for more uniform stress distribution across the tooth, resulting in reduced wear and improved performance. This ultimately leads to longer belt life and a more efficient power transmission system.

The RPP 14M series is designed for high-torque, high-performance applications. The RPP (Rubber Pinnacle Profile) series features a curvilinear tooth profile, which allows for better engagement and meshing between the belt and the pulley, resulting in reduced wear and improved efficiency. The 14M refers to the pitch of the belt, which is 14 millimeters (mm) between the centers of two adjacent teeth. This larger pitch is suitable for high-torque applications where more power transmission is required.
