    Description

    This listing is for one set of TWO timings belts (X and Y axis) cut to length for the Original Prusa Mini. The lengths were matched to the original belts that came on my Prusa Mini.
    I had issues with the belts that came with my printer as well as the replacement belts sent by Prusa. Support later confirmed that they have had issues with some of the belts used on their printers (also stating that this has since been fixed in production).
    Here is a summary of the problems I experienced with my belts as a reference:
    https://3dprinting.stackexchange.com/questions/14864/how-is-my-prusa-mini-damaging-its-x-axis-belt
    I now only use genuine GATES PowerGrip GT3 belts on my printer and the quality of my prints have improved significantly.
    GATES PowerGrip GT3 are some of the highest quality belts available on the market.
    I ordered extra length for my own use and I'm providing this listing to help others who have had similar issues or would like to replace their stock belts with the best belts available on the market.
    Let me know if you would like belts of other lengths and I can try to accommodate.
    Please note that GATES branding as shown in the listing might not appear on the belts you receive due to cutting these belts to proper length. I also ship these in a single plastic bag. The photo depicting them individually labeled and in two separate bags is for illustrative purposes to help clarify that there are two belts (it's hard to tell when they're both in one bag). The longer belt is for the X-axis (with the nozzle) and the shorter belt is for the Y-axis (the bed).
    To further clarify the very confusing naming. These belts are have a 2GT profile. The product name by GATES is "GT3" which is the third iteration of the PowerGrip product line model GaTes 3 or "GT3". This is an improvement over the older GT2 belts that is "thicker than standard MXL or GT2 (2mm) and is great for use with Nema 23 size motors where deep tooth engagement is a necessity." The new GT3 product is being marketed as a 100% compatible replacement and an improvement over the older GATES GT2 belts.
