HTD 5M Plain Profile Sheave 15mm H16: Stability and Load Capacity for Industrial Bevel Gearboxes
The HTD 5M flat profile sheave is the ideal choice for high-torque drive systems. This specific model, characterised by a generous 15mm bore and a useful height of 16mm, is designed to act as a gearbox or belt tensioner in heavy-duty mechanics, where bearing stability and smoothness of movement are non-negotiable requirements. With DHM, you can count on structural components ready to withstand heavy workloads.
What is the HTD 5M Plain H16 pulley?
It is a deflection element (idler) made of high-quality aluminium, with no surface toothing. It is designed to work in synergy with HTD (High Torque Drive) profile belts with 5mm pitch, working in contact with the back of the belt itself. The 15 mm bore makes it suitable for mounting on large drive shafts or housing robust bearings, ensuring smooth rotation even under high tensions.
Why choose our smooth belt pulley HTD 5M?
This component is characterised by a solid construction designed for industrial applications:
- Increased Height (H16): With an internal space of 16mm, it is perfectly compatible with 15mm wide HTD 5M belts, offering secure containment.
- Optimised Running Surface: The smooth finish prevents premature wear of the belt back and minimises mechanical noise typical of power transmissions.
- Double Safety Flange: Large side walls ensure that the belt stays perfectly in place, eliminating the risk of sideways leakage during peak loads.
- Superior strength: Entirely made of aluminium, lightweight yet capable of maintaining structural integrity even in demanding operating environments.
Note on manufacturing tolerances
We work to ensure the highest quality consistency, however, due to possible variations between production batches, actual measurements may differ from those stated in the datasheet by ±2 mm (except internal hole). If your project requires specific dimensions or precise millimetre tolerances, we recommend that you contact us prior to purchase for direct verification of stock measurements.
When to use the HTD 5M Smooth Sheave?
Due to its robustness and bore diameter, it is the perfect component for:
- Power Transmissions: Ideal as a gearbox in systems using high-torque motors (such as large NEMA or industrial brushless motors).
- CNC Machines and Automation: Used to divert the belt path or as a belt tensioner in medium to large pantographs.
- Conveyor Systems: Perfect for idler rollers or tensioning systems in automated production lines.
Package contains: 1 x Pulley HTD-5M Ø 15 mm smooth H16
