MXL timing pulley bar stock - a fine pitch and smooth motion

The fine pitch allows many teeth to fit on a small diameter, which gives smooth running and an accurate transmission ratio. Aluminium is easy to machine even at small diameters, so you can match the pulley to your mechanism without special tools. Several pulleys from one bar also mean a lower cost for small batches.
