The DODGE HT500 series timing pulley transmits motion between shafts through timing belts, with no slippage and a constant transmission ratio. It is used in drives where synchronization is critical: from pumps and compressors to conveyors and machine tools. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this line in Buenos Aires, Argentina, with technical advice to choose the correct pitch, number of teeth and mounting.
The HT500 series designation is read in blocks. In F8MX-36S-21-SH, F8MX identifies the pulley type and pitch; 36S indicates the number of teeth and the hub style; 21 corresponds to the belt width; and SH defines the taper bushing system. The examples F8MX-38S-21-SH, F8MX-40S-21-SH and F8MX-42S-21-SH show how only the number of teeth changes within the same family. With this data, the pulley compatible with the belt and bushing is selected.
These pulleys are used in production lines, mills, food and beverage plants, the textile industry and packaging equipment. In Argentina, they are commonly found in belt conveyors, mixers, blowers and woodworking machines. The timing drive maintains synchronization between shafts, which is key when the relative position must be preserved or slipping avoided. They are also used in positive displacement pumps and screw compressors.
To select the pulley, take into account the belt pitch, the number of teeth, the width and the shaft diameter. The SH taper bushing allows mounting and dismounting without hammering and makes alignment adjustment easier. Check that the pulley and the sprocket are aligned to avoid uneven belt wear. Lubrication does not apply to this type of drive, but tension control and the condition of the teeth do. A clean installation with the correct torque on the bushing screws extends service life.
HT500 timing pulleys can be interchanged with other brands that use the same pitch, number of teeth and bushing system, as long as the hub dimensions and the outside diameter are respected. Matching pitch alone is not enough: the belt width and the bushing type must be verified. MR Accesorios Industriales tells you the compatible alternative or manufactures it to measure if you need a special configuration.
If you already have the pulley part number, send it by WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales and we will quote it shortly. If you cannot find it, send us the pitch, the number of teeth, the belt width and the shaft diameter: we will tell you the corresponding option. We can also advise you on the bushing and the belt so that the assembly works without problems from the first installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the SH suffix mean on the DODGE HT500 pulley?
- The SH suffix indicates the taper bushing system the pulley uses to mount on the shaft. That bushing allows the pulley to be secured with screws and removed without hammering, which makes maintenance and alignment easier. It is important to respect the tightening torque indicated for that bushing.
- How do I choose the number of teeth for my application?
- The number of teeth defines the transmission ratio together with the driven pulley. You need to know the speed of the drive shaft and the speed you want to obtain. With that data and the belt pitch, the combination is calculated. Send us those values and we will advise you.
- Can I replace a pulley from another brand with a DODGE HT500?
- Yes, if the pitch, the number of teeth, the belt width and the bushing type match. Matching pitch alone is not enough: the outside diameter and the hub dimensions must be verified. Send us the part number of the original pulley and we will tell you the equivalent.
