Description
GT2 Timing Pulley 5MM 20 Teeth Pulley for Reprap 3D Printer
The GT2 20 Teeth Timing Pulley is an important mechanical component used in belt-driven 3D printers and CNC motion systems. It connects to a compatible motor shaft and engages with a GT2 timing belt to transfer rotational movement into controlled linear motion.
This pulley has 20 teeth and a 5mm bore, making it suitable for compatible 5mm motor shafts. GT2 timing systems commonly use a 2mm tooth pitch. With 20 teeth, the pulley has a nominal belt travel of 40mm per complete revolution, assuming a matching GT2 belt.
It is commonly used in RepRap 3D printers, DIY CNC machines, laser engravers and other automated positioning systems.
