PU timing belt T10 980 - Megadyne Megapower

PU timing belt T10 980 – cast endless Megapower timing belt

PU timing belt T10 980 - Megadyne Megapower is a PU timing belt from Megadyne Megapower with T10 profile, 980 mm pitch length and 98 teeth. It is designed for synchronous operation, where the teeth engage the timing belt pulley and maintain the correct movement.

The belt is a technical spare part where the fixed dimensions must match the drive. This applies in particular to the tooth profile, pitch length, number of teeth and the width used on the machine.

With 98 teeth and 10.0 mm pitch, the pitch length of 980 mm matches the belt's synchronous dimensions. The pitch length describes the belt's turn along the pitch line and is the length used in conjunction with the pitch and number of teeth.

The width tolerance is +/- 0.50 mm, the thickness tolerance is +/- 0.30 mm, and the sleeve width tolerance is +/- 10 mm. The working temperature for standard Megapower is -25 °C to +80 °C.

T10 profile and tooth pitch

With T10 profile the belt has 10 mm between the tooth centres. The profile must not be mixed with AT10 as the tooth shape and timing belt pulley are not the same.

T10 is a T-profile and should be kept separate from other profiles with the same pitch. A T10 belt should run in timing belt pulleys where the tooth shape matches this particular profile.

Polyurethane and steel cord

The construction consists of polyurethane and zinc-coated steel cord. The polyurethane forms the teeth and spine, while the steel cord contributes to low elongation and stable pitch length.

The molded endless design provides a continuous belt without joints. This is an important difference compared to open or joined belts because the belt is made as one closed length from the start.

The standard version is thermoset polyurethane, standard 88 ShA with zinc-coated steel cord. The steel cord is located inside the belt and helps to keep the pitch length stable when the belt is operating in a synchronous drive.

Tooth engagement in operation

The synchronous function comes from the tooth shape. When the belt and timing pulley fit together, the movement is maintained mechanically instead of relying on friction alone.

The standard widths for this belt are stated in the technical data. The width does not change the tooth pitch, but is part of the overall dimensions of the belt in the drive.

For this T10 belt, the standard widths are 10, 12, 16, 20, 25, 32, 50 and 75 mm. The width does not change the tooth profile, but it must fit the timing belt pulley, pulleybase and the space the belt has in the machine.

Frequently asked questions about the product

What does T10 mean?

T10 means that the belt has a metric T-profile with 10 mm tooth pitch.

How many teeth does the belt have?
