5M Series HTD High Torque Drive Belt – Specifications and Applications
The 5M Series HTD (High Torque Drive) Timing Belt is a high-performance synchronous drive solution designed to deliver consistent torque, exceptional load distribution, and smooth, quiet operation in medium-duty industrial and commercial applications. Featuring a 5 mm tooth pitch, the 5M HTD belt utilizes a curvilinear tooth profile that reduces stress concentrations while increasing the belt’s surface contact with pulley grooves, enhancing both power transmission and durability.
Tooth Pitch: 5 mm
Tooth Profile: Curvilinear HTD (rounded) design
Construction: Neoprene rubber body reinforced with high-strength fiberglass tensile cords
Tooth Facing: Wear-resistant nylon fabric
Operating Temperature Range: -30°C to +100°C
Standard Widths: 9 mm, 15 mm, 25 mm
Load Capacity: Higher than trapezoidal belts due to greater tooth engagement
Resistance: Oil, chemical, ozone, and abrasion resistant
This design enables the 5M belt to handle medium-torque applications at higher speeds with precise, slip-free performance.
The 5M HTD belt is widely used in:
Packaging equipment
Conveyors and material handling systems
Textile machinery
Food processing equipment
Medical and laboratory devices
Robotics and automation
Power tools and compressors
With reliable power transmission, minimal backlash, and low maintenance, the 5M HTD Series Timing Belt is the preferred choice for engineers seeking efficiency and longevity. Its compact design and powerful grip make it ideal for space-constrained machinery where accuracy and torque are critical. When your system requires high torque in a small footprint, the 5M HTD belt delivers dependable performance across industries.
