In colder climates, the flexibility of standard materials might suffer, but the synthetic rubber used in our drive belts maintains its pliability even in sub-zero temperatures. This prevents cracking, which is a common cause of belt failure in icy environments. On the flip side, when your engine is running hot or you're driving through sweltering conditions, our belts resist heat degradation. Their ability to handle intense thermal stress ensures reliable performance without stretching or snapping.

The specification of 20 may refer to the number of teeth that can be effectively engaged in a compact profile. The design of the 1.8 T timing belt allows it to be used in high-precision applications where accuracy and timing are critical.

- Industrial Machinery Many machines in manufacturing processes rely on cogged belts for efficient power transmission. They are often found in conveyor systems, printers, and other automated equipment.

Replacing V Belts

The timing belt is made of durable rubber reinforced with materials such as fiberglass or steel to withstand the high temperatures and intense pressures found in an engine. Unlike the serpentine belt, which drives several accessories such as the alternator and power steering pump, the timing belt is a critical part of the engine’s design and function. It typically has teeth or ribs that mesh with the gears on the crankshaft and camshaft, providing a secure grip that prevents slippage.

Conclusion

The timing belt is typically made of reinforced rubber and features teeth on its inner surface, allowing it to grip the gears of the crankshaft and camshaft securely. Unlike a timing chain, which is made of metal, a timing belt is generally quieter, lighter, and less expensive to manufacture. However, timing belts have a limited lifespan and are subject to wear and tear over time, making proper maintenance and timely replacement critical.

3. Durability The robust nature of HNBR translates to a longer service life for timing belts. With minimal wear and tear, HNBR timing belts can provide reliable performance across extended periods and on various automotive applications.
