What timing belts are you guys using, and where are you ordering them from?

We are having difficulty finding stock 12' timing belts

The longest I know of is 250T which is 250 teeth at 5mm per is 1250mm or 49" (just over 4ft). If you cut the belt and use the single sided mounting you could go nearly 4', but not 12' (or 6'). If you really need that travel, it may be simplest to switch to chain.

We got 30' of 25 mm wide belt from polybelt.com. We will cut to length. A bit pricey, sure.

For round tooth profiles plates can get slotted with a ball end mill very easily to make clamps.

You can also buy HTD belt or GT2 belt by the meter from SDP-SI

My team ordered some 3800 millimeter (about 12.45 feet) long, 15 mm wide belts from Motion Industries.
