The Gates 8MX timing belt is a power transmission element with teeth that mesh with toothed pulleys, ensuring an exact, slip-free rotation ratio. It is used when shafts must be synchronized or a constant speed maintained, such as in machine tools, printing equipment or automation. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this line in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and quotes it for you on WhatsApp.

The designation of these belts reads as 264-8MX-20: the first digits indicate the pitch length in millimeters, 8MX is the profile and the last number is the width in millimeters. So 264-8MX-20 has a 264 mm pitch and a 20 mm width, while 320-8MX-30 combines a 320 mm pitch with a 30 mm width. The 8MX profile defines the tooth pitch and the compatible pulley type. With the full part number we quote the exact size you need.

These belts are used in drives where synchronization is critical: CNC machine spindles, printer shafts, packaging equipment, robotics and industrial automation. In Argentina they are widely used in the metalworking, food and printing industries. They also appear in compressors, pumps and positioning systems. Because they do not slip, they maintain the transmission ratio and prevent synchronization errors.

To choose correctly, take into account the power to be transmitted, the rotation speed and the center distance. The pulley must have the same 8MX profile and the right number of teeth. Aligning the pulleys and tensioning the belt according to the manufacturer's recommendations is key to avoiding premature wear. Check that there is no oil or dirt on the teeth and check for wear periodically.

Timing belts are identified by profile and pitch, and different brands offer equivalents with the same nomenclature. If you bring the part number of another brand or a sample, we tell you the compatible equivalent. At MR Accesorios Industriales we advise you so that the belt you install performs the same function without errors.
