Need Gates Belt Sprockets

[dapub]

Team 1991 (Hartford/West Hartford, CT) is in desperate need of the 1" and 2" Gates Power Grip Belt Sprockets that came in this years' KOP (2008.) Any team in CT or MA that is not using them this year, and would like to sell them to us - we can pick up immediately! Gates is backordered on them 3-4 weeks!

Please PM me or post if you can help out.
Thanks.

www.mcmaster.com has a nice assortment of timing belt pulleys. Order from them and you will have it tomorrow. If you search for timing belt pulley and select the Power Grip GT series, any of the 5mm pitch pulleys will mesh with the ones in the kit.


There are also many other suppliers online for the same products.

Thanks, Greg.

McMaster cannot get them for us, as neither can any of the many distributors we have tried online. Can't find them in stock anywhere, either.

Stock Drive Products has them.

we had problems getting belt sprockets also so we just had some made by one of our sponsors.

FROM EXPERIENCE
Do not use the plastic belt sprockets....they will warp and torque in no time.

We have ours in our kit how many do you need?

We ordered the gates timing belt and pulleys from motion industries. I think the narrowest they had was 9mm. They did not have it online, so you have to call them.

Thanks. No stock for what we need........

And a gracious thanks to GUS Team 228 for offering us their sprockets and belts from their KOP. You guys rock!
