What is the difference between T5/T10 and AT5/AT10? Understanding the differences in strength and backlash from the tooth profile shape.
Basic Comparison of T Shape and AT Shape T5 / T10 (Standard Type): The tooth root is thin and designed for light loads. Stress concentrates during sudden stops, making it prone to skipping and tooth breakage. AT5 / AT10 (High Load Type): The tooth root is thickened, improving torque transmission by 30-50% at the same pitch ratio. It is optimal for low backlash, high precision forward and reverse rotation, and multi-axis robots. Points for Operation and Improvement Mixing is not allowed: Due to different tooth groove shapes, belts and pulleys must be replaced simultaneously. Change to the same pitch is recommended: When torque is insufficient, changing to the same pitch AT5 to increase strength without altering installation space is optimal rather than enlarging to T10. Improving Precision: Reducing backlash prevents response delays during frequent forward and reverse rotations.
