OT: Timing pulleys

Is this referring to a parameter T in the x direction (is there a T y too perhaps) or is x the unknown quantity. Can you post a reference to set it in context please.

regards

Bob

Torx Screw size, used on some adjustable vernier pulleys to allow the outer an inner to be moved relative to each other?

The only use I've found of 'T' is as 't' with no subscript referring to the tooth pitch. common values are 3,5,8 and 14. 30 would be an enormous belt. You can see typical data on RSwww.com but I did not find any Tx

Do let us know if you find out - I'm curious now.

T(x) is probably the number of teeth on the pulley.

Synchroflex metric belts have a T** designation, but (T2, T2.5, T5 etc), but not as big as 30. The number is the tooth pitch in mm. They use 'Z' for tooth count (German Zahn=tooth)
