Belt type DT5 double-sided PU belts

5mm pitch · T teeth on both faces · Steel-corded PU

DT5 belts are T5 polyurethane timing belts with teeth on both faces, so one belt can drive pulleys on either side. They’re used on serpentine and reversing drives in packaging, textile and conveying machinery. Search by the code on the old belt, such as DT5-500-16, and use the filters to narrow it down by length or width.

Finding the right DT5 belt

Reading the codeDT5-500-16 is a T5 belt with a 500mm length and 16mm width, toothed on both sides.

Single or double sided?If only one face drives anything, a standard T5 belt of the same size will do the job for less.

PulleysThey run in standard T5 pulleys. Double-sided belts are thicker, so check clearance on the drive.

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