Timing Belts

Timing Belts:

A timing belt is a general term utilized for a type of belting that is flat and has teeth. Timing belts are used to transmit power or to interchange rotary motion and linear motion, where either high loads or maintaining a specific drive ratio are important.  Timing belts are also referred to as synchronous belts.  When utilized in power transmission, timing belts are much more efficient and quieter than both V belt and chain drive systems.  Timing belts are predominantly available in rubber, but timing belts manufactured out of urethane are becoming increasingly popular.
