I not super knowledgeable about timing belts so I was hoping to get some help finding two timing belt pulleys I can use. I need an 8MM (5/16 in) bore Timing belt pulley for my stepper motor and a 3/4 in. Timing belt pulley for my shaft. I've found some with both 5/16 and 3/4 on McMaster-Carr but they seem to be for different size timing belts with different pitch. Anyone know where I can find some these with the same pitch and sized timing belt? |

mcmaster and grainger sometimes list the supplier of the items they sell. look at the manufacturer and track them down directly. they will know what sizes are available, etc. I did this with pogo pins a while back, had to go right to the maker but they had what i needed. it could well be easier to find a belt you can live with and then find sheaves (pullies) to match, more variety of those around. |

Following your advice I pushed to manufactuer's and found these guys have 5/16 and 3/4 in bore L series pulleys with 3/8" pitch. So it should be good to go ordering these. http://torquetrans.com/pulleys/timing-pulleys/l.htm This is exciting. I've been on stand still looking for pulleys. My arduino code is almost ready too! Soon, there shall be a rotating 42" TV in the near future. |

glad to be of service. |

Just another update in-case anyone else ever needs them, I called them and got directed to Quality Transmission Components and they have boat loads available. So yeah, awesome sauce - http://www.econobelt.com/e-store/Pulleys.htm So once pulleys arrive try out Arduino code and then I'll start a project thread about building the cab lol. It's going to be a monstrosity. |
