    The belt to use is in relation to the pulleys you have. There are several types of models as well as width and length. To give you an idea, there are gt2 gt3 gt5 pulleys as well as htd m3 htd m5 and many more.

    The difference is the size of the tooth and the steps as well as the force it supports. I think you should choose that according to the power of your motor.
