The Gates MGTC series timing belt is a power transmission component that works by tooth engagement, not by friction. It is used to synchronize shafts and maintain an exact transmission ratio in equipment where slippage is not acceptable. MR Accesorios Industriales sells it in different sizes and widths so you can replace your machine's belt with the correct designation.

The designation of these belts is read in parts. The first number indicates the pitch or profile: 5MGTC corresponds to a 5 mm pitch. The second number is the pitch length in millimeters: 300, 375, 425 or 500. The last number is the width in millimeters: 9 or 25. Thus, a 5MGTC-300-9 has a 5 mm pitch, 300 mm length and 9 mm width, while the 5MGTC-500-25 combines a 5 mm pitch, 500 mm length and 25 mm width. With those three data points you identify the belt unambiguously.

These belts are used in transmissions that require synchronism: machine tool shafts, pump drives, compressors, packaging and conveying equipment, and positioning systems. In Argentine industry they appear in production lines, metalworking shops, food plants and automation equipment where motion precision is critical. Their toothed profile allows transmitting torque without slipping and maintaining synchrony between pulleys.

To select the correct belt, check the pitch, length and width that your pulley requires. Mounting requires aligning the pulleys and adjusting tension according to the equipment manufacturer's recommendations: excessive tension wears the teeth and bearings, and low tension causes jumping. Also check the condition of the pulleys: worn or misaligned teeth shorten the belt's life. Lubrication does not apply in this type of transmission; care involves cleanliness and proper tension.

Timing belts are identified by their numeric designation and by the pitch profile. When replacing a belt from another brand, compare pitch, length, width and number of teeth with the original part. If you have doubts, send us the old part number or the measurements and we will indicate the compatible equivalent. We work with recognized brands and can quote the belt you need according to the exact designation.
