double sided teeth timing belt

Most manufacturers recommend replacing the timing belt every 60,000 to 100,000 miles, but this can vary depending on the make and model of the vehicle. Failure to replace a worn or damaged timing belt can result in catastrophic engine failure. In interference engines, where the valves and pistons occupy the same space, a broken timing belt can cause the pistons to collide with open valves, leading to bend or break components and extensive damage that can be costly to repair.

Factors such as engine size, the number of accessories driven, operating conditions, and specific performance goals can all prompt the need for a tailored serpentine belt. For example, high-performance racing engines may require belts that can withstand higher RPMs and extreme conditions, necessitating stronger materials and unique sizing.
