Belt type 2M HTD timing belts

2mm pitch · Round HTD teeth · Metric sizes

2M timing belts are HTD (High Torque Drive) belts with a 2mm pitch and rounded teeth, which carry more load and run more quietly than the older trapezoidal designs. You’ll find 2M belts on 3D printers, small automation, office equipment and instruments. Search by the code on the old belt, such as 2M-200-6, and use the filters to narrow it down by length or width.

Finding the right 2M belt

Reading the code2M-200-6 is a 2M belt with a 200mm pitch length and a 6mm width. Some brands write it the other way round, such as 200-2M-6 or 6-2M-200, but the numbers mean the same thing.

Counting teethPitch length divided by 2mm gives the tooth count, so a 200mm 2M belt has 100 teeth. If the code has worn off, count the teeth and multiply by 2 for the length.

2M or MXL?A 2M belt is 2mm pitch with round teeth. MXL is 2.032mm with trapezoidal teeth. They look similar but don’t mesh with each other’s pulleys.

Tip: Belts cut to width or length to order can’t be returned unless faulty, so check the pitch, length and width before ordering.

No code?Measure the pitch, count the teeth and measure the width. Our how to measure guide shows you how.
