timing belt for hyundai h100

However, flat belts also have disadvantages. Their efficiency can decrease significantly under heavy loads, as they rely on friction to transmit power. This limitation can lead to slippage, especially when the load exceeds the belt's capacity. Consequently, flat belts are less suitable for high-torque applications where a consistent grip is essential. Furthermore, the alignment of the pulleys must be precise; any misalignment could cause significant wear or failure.

A timing belt is a looped strip of material, typically made from rubber or other synthetic materials, that features teeth on its inner surface. These teeth mesh with corresponding grooves on pulleys, allowing for precise synchronization between the rotation of the belt and the rotation of the driven components. This characteristic makes timing belts ideal for applications requiring consistent timing and positioning, such as in camshaft and crankshaft systems in engines, conveyor systems, and various automated machinery.
