PU timing belt T2.5 380 - Megadyne Megapower

PU timing belt T2.5 380 – T2.5 timing belt from Megadyne

PU timing belt T2.5 380 - Megadyne Megapower is a cast endless Megapower PU timing belt with T2.5 profile. The length along the pitch line is 380 mm and the number of teeth is 152. The belt transmits power via tooth meshing and is used in synchronous technical drives.

The tooth profile controls which type of timing pulley the belt can run on. The length and number of teeth indicate the belt's turn, while the width is adapted to the current belt routing.

With 152 teeth and 2.5 mm tooth pitch, the pitch length of 380 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 tooth pitch and number of teeth.

The width tolerance is +/- 0.30 mm, the thickness tolerance is +/- 0.15 mm, and the sleeve width tolerance is +/- 10 mm. The working temperature for standard Megapower is -25 °C to +80 °C.

T2.5 profile and tooth pitch

T2.5 is a metric T-profile with a fine tooth pitch of 2.5 mm. The small pitch makes the profile suitable for smaller pulleys and precise movements when the drive is built for T2.5.

T2.5 is a T-profile and should be kept separate from other profiles with the same pitch. A T2.5 belt should run in timing belt pulleys where the tooth shape matches this particular profile.

Molded endless construction

The belt material is polyurethane and the standard reinforcement is zinc-coated steel cord. This provides a dimensionally stable PU timing belt for synchronous drives where the length must be kept uniform.

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.

Operation with timing belt pulleys

The timing belt transmits power by the teeth engaging the timing belt pulley. In a correctly constructed belt drive, this provides synchronous operation because the belt follows the rotation of the timing belt pulley without working as a friction belt.

The belt can be supplied in the standard widths listed in the technical data. The tooth profile and pitch length are the same, while the width follows the selected belt guide.

For this T2.5 belt, the standard widths are 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 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 pitch length mean?

The pitch length is the length of the belt measured along the pitch line. For this belt, the pitch length is 380 mm.

What does T2.5 mean?

T2.5 means that the belt has a metric T-profile with 2.5 mm tooth pitch.

Which timing pulley should the belt be used with?

The belt must be used with timing belt pulleys in T2.5 profile and with a width that matches the drive.

How many teeth does the belt have?

This Megadyne Megapower PU timing belt has 152 teeth.

Brief summary

PU timing belt T2.5 380 - Megadyne Megapower is a cast endless PU timing belt in T2.5 profile with 380 mm pitch length and 152 teeth. The belt is made of polyurethane with zinc-coated steel cord and is used for synchronous power transmission together with timing belt pulleys in the same profile.
