Description

GT2-6mm Timing Belt

The GT2-6mm Timing Belt is an open-ended synchronous belt used in 3D printers, CNC machines and automated motion-control systems. It transfers rotational movement from a stepper motor pulley into controlled linear movement along a machine’s axis.

Its GT2 tooth profile has a 2mm pitch, allowing it to engage with compatible GT2 timing pulleys. The 6mm width makes it suitable for many desktop 3D printer designs, including RepRap-style machines and DIY CNC projects.

This 1-metre belt can be cut to the required length for custom mechanical assemblies. Its toothed design helps reduce slipping and maintain accurate movement during printing and positioning operations.

Important clarification: The belt has a 2mm tooth pitch. The 16-tooth specification generally refers to a compatible GT2 pulley, not the total number of teeth on the 1-metre belt. A 16-tooth GT2 pulley moves the belt approximately 32mm per complete revolution.

Technical Specifications

Material reinforcement may vary between rubber, fiberglass-cord and other belt versions. Confirm the exact construction with the supplied product.

Key Features

• Supports accurate linear movement.

• Suitable for stepper motor-driven mechanisms.

• No lubrication required during normal operation.

• Useful for DIY mechanical and automation projects.

Applications

• 3D printer X-axis and Y-axis movement.

• RepRap and Prusa-style 3D printers.

• DIY CNC engraving machines.

• Laser engraver motion systems.

• Stepper motor positioning systems.

• Robotics and automation projects.

• Custom linear motion mechanisms.

How to Use / Setup

1. Measure the required belt length for your machine.

2. Cut the open-ended belt to the required size.

3. Install it around compatible GT2 pulleys and idlers.

4. Attach the belt ends to the appropriate carriage or mounting brackets.

5. Adjust belt tension so it is firm without being excessively tight.

6. Rotate the pulley manually to check smooth movement.

7. Test the machine at low speed before normal operation.

Precautions

• Use only compatible GT2 pulleys with a 2mm tooth pitch.

• Confirm that the pulley supports a 6mm-wide belt.

• Avoid excessive belt tension, which can increase motor and bearing load.

• Do not twist or sharply bend the belt.

• Keep the belt free from dust and debris.

• Check alignment to prevent uneven wear.

• Replace damaged or worn belts to maintain positioning accuracy.
