Shop Timing Belts Online
Shop timing belts at BMG for accurate power transmission in industrial machinery, belt-drive systems, pumps, conveyors and equipment drives. Compare Fenner and Gates options by pitch, width, tooth profile, belt type and pulley compatibility.
Category Focus
Timing belts, also called synchronous belts, use toothed engagement with matching pulleys to transfer motion without the slip associated with friction-only belt drives.
Start with the drive
Confirm the existing belt code, pitch, belt width, tooth profile, pulley type and drive layout before selecting a replacement timing belt.
Choose Timing Belts for Accurate Power Transmission
Timing belts are used in synchronous belt-drive systems where accurate motion transfer, tooth engagement and pulley compatibility are important. BMG’s timing belts range helps buyers compare Fenner and Gates options for industrial machinery, equipment drives and maintenance replacement work.
Classical Timing Belts
Compare classical timing belt profiles where the application requires positive engagement with matching timing pulleys.
HTD and Curvilinear Profiles
Review higher-torque belt profiles where tooth shape, pitch and pulley match need to support the drive requirement.
Open-Ended and Metric Options
Select by belt format, pitch, length and width where the drive layout or machine design calls for a specific belt type.
What to Compare Before You Buy
The right timing belt depends on the drive layout, pulley profile, pitch, belt length, width and operating conditions. Start with the existing belt code or machine specification, then confirm the matching pulley and application requirements.
- Confirm the belt pitch, length and width from the existing belt or machine documentation.
- Check the tooth profile, such as classical, HTD or another compatible synchronous profile.
- Match the timing belt to the correct timing pulley profile and pulley width.
- Review whether the belt is metric, imperial, double-sided or open-ended.
- Consider speed, torque, alignment, tensioning and operating environment before final selection.
- Use the BMG listing to compare Fenner and Gates timing belt options online.
Common Uses for Timing Belts
Timing belts are commonly used in industrial machinery, pumps, conveyors, machine tools, processing equipment, automation systems and other applications where synchronised motion or accurate power transmission is required.
For replacement work, match the existing belt code, tooth profile, pitch, length and width carefully. For new applications, compare the pulley arrangement, drive ratio, torque, speed, tensioning and environmental conditions before final selection.
Timing Belts FAQs
What are timing belts used for?
Timing belts are used in synchronous belt drives to transfer motion between pulleys with positive tooth engagement, helping maintain accurate timing and positioning.
Can I buy timing belts online from BMG?
Yes. Use the BMG timing belts listing to browse available products, compare options and move through the online buying process.
Which brands are included on this page?
This page is structured around Fenner and Gates timing belt options available through BMG’s online product range.
What should I check before choosing a timing belt?
Check the belt code, pitch, length, width, tooth profile, pulley compatibility, tensioning requirement and operating conditions before selecting a replacement.
Are timing belts the same as V-belts?
No. Timing belts have teeth that engage with matching pulleys, while V-belts rely on friction between the belt and pulley groove.
What does belt pitch mean on a timing belt?
Belt pitch is the distance between corresponding points on adjacent teeth. It must match the pulley tooth pitch for the drive to operate correctly.
