01 · Description

What the belt is for

The 450-5GT-40 is a synchronous belt with the PowerGrip GT (Gates) profile, a 5 mm tooth pitch and a length of 450 mm. It has 90 teeth and is used where the distance between the servomotor and ball-screw pulleys is greater — typically in larger machining centres, multi-spindle lathes and machining centres with a more extensive working area.

The belt's construction remains standard: a strong neoprene band reinforced with glass-fibre cords, with fabric-faced teeth against wear. The PowerGrip GT profile ensures precise synchronous transmission without slip even under the high dynamic loads common on the axes of larger CNC machines.

Where the belt is found

The 450-5GT-40 belt is used in the axis drives of larger CNC machining centres, machining centres and multi-spindle lathes. When replacing it, we recommend replacing the belt as a pair with the tensioner pulley if the machine has two parallel belts — uneven wear leads to uneven loading and premature failure of the new unit.

Mazak multi-spindle lathes

On machines with a pair of parallel belts (e.g. a spindle drive via two pulleys) we recommend replacing both at once — an older belt worn by even one more cycle will quickly destroy the new one. What we'll need from you →
