v belt myvi 1.5

A non-interference engine is designed in such a way that there is enough clearance between the moving parts (the pistons and valves) such that if the timing belt were to fail, these components would not collide. This design feature is particularly advantageous as it provides a safety net for the engine in the event of a timing belt failure. In contrast, an interference engine does not afford this luxury; failure of the timing belt in such engines typically leads to catastrophic damage, including bent valves and damaged pistons, which can result in extensive repair costs.

A flat V belt is designed with a unique cross-section that resembles a trapezoid. This design feature enhances the belt's ability to grip the pulleys it runs on, reducing slippage and increasing power transmission efficiency. The materials used to manufacture flat V belts typically include rubber, polyester, and other synthetic materials that can withstand the rigors of heavy machinery. The belts are often reinforced with fabric or steel cords to improve their tensile strength and resistance to wear.
