Gates Timing Belt Tooth Trapezoidal

Gates trapezoidal tooth timing belts are engine timing belts (also called cam belts or timing cam belts). They keep the crankshaft and camshaft(s) synchronized so the valves open and close at the right time. This product line uses the classic trapezoidal tooth profile and is built for dependable, precise timing in a wide range of engine applications.

Key Features:

• Trapezoidal tooth profile that engages the pulleys for positive, non-slip drive
• Reinforced construction with high-strength tensile cords to resist stretch and keep timing accurate
• Durable rubber compound designed to withstand heat, oil, and the wear of continuous engine operation
• Quiet, smooth operation with consistent power transmission
• Quality manufacturing from Gates, a respected name in belt and drive technology and an established OE supplier

Replacing a timing belt at the manufacturer's recommended interval helps protect the engine from the serious damage a failed belt can cause. Many installers also replace the tensioner, idler pulleys, and water pump at the same time. Choose the child item that matches your application to get the correct belt.
