drive components vendors request

drive components vendors request

(OP)
Hi
I'm not sure if the moderators even allow this kind of question, but here goes.  I am looking for advice on vendors for mechanical drive components like pulleys, belts, gears, etc.  Who have you found that has good selection and easy to deal with in terms of ordering and service.
Regards,

What general size?  Big heavy industrial stuff, medium machine stuff, or tiny instrument stuff?  Basic diameter ranges would tell us.

Good point.  Small to medium size stuff.  We tend to work on lighter weight, higher volume product development and typically need components for prototyping and early builds before a project is tooled up.

Misumi is good for metric, getting better for inch.  They have fairly low cost, quick delivery, and no minimum orders.
