Are there flanges for timing belt pulleys?
Timing belt pulley flanges are available for your custom synchronous belt pulley needs. Also commonly referred to as timing belt pulley washers, belt guides, flanges and discs. Cog pulley flanges are available in steel or aluminum construction. With other materials available upon request.
Where does the timing belt track on a timing belt?
Timing belts typically track to one side of a timing belt pulley during operation, and would slide off the timing belt pulley if it was not flanged. The following timing belt pulley flanging guidelines have been established as recommendations for properly flanging synchronous belt pulleys.
Is the timing belt on a vertical shaft drive flanged?
Vertical Shaft Drives – On vertical shaft drives, at least one cog pulley should be flanged on both sides, and the remaining timing belt pulleys should be flanged on at least the bottom side.
What causes timing belt pulley flange to fail?
Timing belt pulley flange failure is often the direct result of misalignment. Misalignment can be observed as: Check parallel and angular alignment of the timing belt pulleys Check parallel and angular alignment of the timing belt pulleys

What do you call a timing belt pulley guide?
Also commonly referred to as timing belt pulley washers, belt guides, flanges and discs. Cog pulley flanges are available in steel or aluminum construction. With other materials available upon request. Standard sizes are available in the following timing belt pitches / timing belt tooth profiles.
