The lifespan of a rubber timing belt varies depending on several factors, including the make and model of the vehicle, driving conditions, and maintenance practices. On average, most rubber timing belts should be replaced every 60,000 to 100,000 miles. Neglecting to replace a worn or damaged timing belt can lead to severe engine damage. If a timing belt breaks, it can cause the camshaft and crankshaft to become out of sync, resulting in valve collision with pistons and extensive damage to the engine.

One of the primary determinants influencing the price of V-belts, including the B 54 model, is the material composition. Typically, V-belts are constructed from rubber, polyester, or a combination of both. High-quality belts that utilize durable materials designed to withstand high temperatures, corrosive environments, and significant wear will generally be priced higher than standard options. Manufacturers often invest considerably in research and development to produce belts that offer enhanced performance and longevity, and this investment is reflected in the price.
