<p>This is a timing belt pulley.</p>

<p>Specifically, is a GT2 timing pulley, 2&nbsp;mm pitch (between teeth), 6&nbsp;mm wide. The drive diameter is measured by the number of teeth (16 in this case) , the shaft diameter (bore) is measured in mm.</p>

<p>The 'GT2' part refers to the tooth profile, some other examples are shown half way down <a href="https://www.pfeiferindustries.com/timing-belt-identification-and-replacement" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this page</a>.</p>

More specifically, it is a 16 teeth GT2 timing belt pulley.

<p>How should I describe this part which looks like a small gear so that I can research replacements?</p>

Not sure I understand your question. It's the driven gear for the belt which either drives the X-axis or Y-axis depending on to which drive motor it's attached. Is that what you're asking?

Thanks I just realized how unclear that was. I was asking the product name of this part. So that I could do my own research and find where to purchase a replacement. My 3D printer kit was missing one.

What part is this? Circular threading spool gear, about 10 mm diameter

This is a timing belt pulley.

Specifically, is a GT2 timing pulley, 2 mm pitch (between teeth), 6 mm wide. The drive diameter is measured by the number of teeth (16 in this case) , the shaft diameter (bore) is measured in mm.

The 'GT2' part refers to the tooth profile, some other examples are shown half way down [this page](https://www.pfeiferindustries.com/timing-belt-identification-and-replacement).
