Meccano spring drive belt

| 613 forum posts 39 photos | Hi I am making a small wobbler and want to use a Meccano spring drive belt on it. I have just ordered the belt and it is 1.5mm dia, but I do not know what V to cut for it. The plastic round belts seem recommend 35 - 40 deg V. Does any one know what it should be for a metal belt or have one they could measure? Thanks Adrian Edited By AdrianR on 04/04/2020 08:12:42 |

 2549 forum posts 235 photos | I've dug out and dusted off a small Meccano pulley (it says so on the side) for you to see their profile.
Martin C Added. The dimensions are 4.75mm across the flange faces (hub is a bit wider) and 15.33mm outside diameter. Edited By Martin Connelly on 04/04/2020 11:30:20 |

| 160 forum posts | Meccano Index drawings give the angle of the pulleys as 64 degrees.
Hope this helps. Neil |
