How do I choose the correct timing belt pitch (e.g., 3M, 5M, 8M, 14M)?

Update Time:2026/2/3
Low power, high speed, compact space: Choose small pitches like 3M or 5M. Common in office equipment, small instruments, and servo motors.
Medium power and speed: Choose 8M. This is one of the most common pitches in industrial automation, balancing capacity and size.
High power/torque, lower speed: Choose 14M, 20M, or larger trapezoidal pitches (e.g., H, XH). Used in heavy machinery and conveyor systems.
Key Reference: Use Sables' Power Rating Tables or selection software based on your design power and small pulley RPM to determine the most economical pitch.
