Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).

This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 13050:2014), which has been technically
revised. 13050-2022
The main changes are as follows:
— in Formulae (1) and (2), “Ao” has been added before the first square bracket;
— the formulae in the document have been renumbered and symbols are now used;
— the nomenclature has been changed in Tables 1 and 14, and Figures 1 and 11;
— belt width measurement methods were improved in 8.1.2, 9.1.2, 10.1.2, 11.1.2;
— total measuring forces are now for reference only in 8.1.3.2, 9.1.3.2, 10.1.3.2, 11.1.3.2;
— belt length measurement procedures were enhanced in 8.1.3.3, 9.1.3.3, 10.1.3.3, 11.1.3.3;
— the taper specification in Annex C was removed.
Any feedback or questions on this document should be directed to the user’s national standards body. A
complete listing of these bodies can be found at www.iso.org/members.html.
1 Scope
This document specifies the principal characteristics of metric pitch curvilinear synchronous endless
belts and pulleys in G, H, R, and S profile systems for use in synchronous belt drives (also known in the
past as timing belt drives, positive belt drives, gear belt drives) for mechanical power transmission and
where positive indexing or synchronization can be required.
The principal belt and pulley characteristics include the following:
a) nominal belt tooth dimensions;
b) belt tooth pitch spacing;
c) belt length and width dimensions and tolerances;
d) belt length measurement specifications;
e)
iTeh STANDARD PREVIEW
pulley groove dimensions and tolerances;
f) pulley diameter and width dimensions and tolerances;
g)
(standards.iteh.ai)
pulley quality specification.

6 Belt nomenclature
A belt is identified as follows:
a) the belt length or pitch length in millimetres, e.g. 1 400 mm;
b) the profile system, e.g. “G”,“H”, “R”, or “S”;
c) the pitch or tooth pitch in millimetres, e.g. 14 mm;
d) the width or belt width in millimetres, e.g. 40 mm (for Profile system S, the width in
millimetres × 10);
e) double-sided belts are designated by adding the letter “D” before the designation of the profile
system.
EXAMPLE A synchronous belt in the above profile systems of 1 400 mm length, 14 mm pitch, and 40 mm
wide is identified as follows:

The nominal belt tooth dimensions are given in Table 1 and shown in Figure 1.

NOTE 4 “o” reference points remain in contact with the part outer surface generated by part radius of

NOTE 5 Groove profile bottom surface in circular part form is an arc whose chordal distance is L1 and whose
radius originates at the part centre.
Belt widths and tolerances are given in Table 2. Evenly measure at least three points throughout
circumference and average them.
See Annex A for tolerances and Annex B for the relationship between the centre distance and the belt
pitch length.

The pitch length of a synchronous belt shall be determined by placing the belt on a measuring fixture
composed of the following elements.

8.1.3.1.1 Two pulleys of equal diameter, as specified in Table 3, of the proper belt profile and having

standard tooth space dimensions. These pulleys should be made to the tolerances shown in Table 3.
13050-2022shaft, while the other shall be free to rotate on a
One pulley shall be free to rotate on a fixed-position
moveable shaft to permit the centre distance to change.
8.1.3.1.3 Means of measuring the centre distance between the two pulleys with the necessary
degree of accuracy for centre distance measurement.
The total measuring force to be applied for measuring belts is given in Table 4. The forces shown in
Table 4 are for reference only.
8.1.3.3 Procedure
In measuring the pitch length of a synchronous belt, the belt should be rotated at least two revolutions
to seat it properly and to divide the total force equally between the two spans of the belt. The pitch
length shall be calculated by adding the pitch circumference of one of the pulleys to twice the measured
centre distance.
Centre-to-centre distance measurement methodology should include multiple sensor readings from a
minimum of 3 belt revolutions averaged together.

Pulleys outside of the diameter tolerance range specified can be used if the resulting belt length measurements are
corrected for the actual pulley diameters.
b F.I.M means the full indicator movement.
NOTE The number of pulley teeth specified in Table 3 determines the recommended sizes for measuring
the belt pitch length. Practically, other sizes of pulleys could be used provided both pulleys are of equal size, and
meet the outside diameter tolerance, radial runout, and axial runout specifications of Table 3.
8.2.1 General
The pulley is characterized by a curvilinear groove profile. This groove profile is defined as the profile
formed by the generating tool rack form required to machine-finish the curvilinear profile. The profile
is different for each pulley diameter, but can be closely approximated by a nominal groove profile over
specified ranges of number of grooves.
Dimensions and tolerances for the generating tool rack for pulleys with profile system G are given in
Table 5 and shown in Figure 3.
