3. V-Belt Older vehicles often use V-belts, which are named for their V shaped cross-section. Unlike serpentine belts that are flat and continuous, V-belts work individually and can drive specific components. Though less common in modern cars, understanding V-belts is important for vintage vehicle enthusiasts.

1. Cost-Effective Repairs The most significant advantage of a non-interference engine is the reduced cost associated with potential failures. When the timing belt snaps or slips in a non-interference engine, the worst-case scenario usually involves a no-start condition and the need for a simple replacement of the timing belt. In contrast, interference engines often demand intensive repairs, leading to high costs that could be avoided with a non-interference design.

1. Enhanced Grip One of the foremost advantages of V-belts with rough tops is their ability to provide increased friction. This enhanced grip is crucial when handling materials that are prone to slipping, such as those used in conveyor systems or power transmission applications. The rough surface significantly reduces the chances of slippage under various loading conditions.

1. Engine Performance A timing belt that is not properly designed or installed can lead to misalignment in the engine’s timing, which can cause performance problems, including reduced power, poor fuel efficiency, and increased emissions.
