rubber timing belt

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.

The fan belt works through a system of pulleys connected to the engine. As the engine turns, it rotates the crankshaft, which, in turn, drives the fan belt around the designated pulleys. This motion generates the necessary force to power various accessories and systems in the vehicle. In essence, without a properly functioning fan belt, critical systems like the cooling system or electrical charging can fail, leading to overheating or battery drainage.
