Gates Premium Automotive Timing Belt

The Gates Premium Automotive Timing Belt line gives engines accurate, reliable valve timing. A timing belt (also called a cam belt or engine timing belt) synchronizes the crankshaft and camshaft(s) so the valves open and close at the right moment in each cycle. Gates is a long-time original equipment supplier to automakers, and the line is built to meet the demands of modern engines.

Key Features:

• Precision-molded tooth profile for accurate timing and smooth power transfer
• Durable rubber compounds and high-strength reinforcement cords for resistance to stretch, heat, oil and wear
• Engineered for quiet operation and long service life
• Built to the fit, form and function of the original equipment belt
• Backed by Gates engineering and quality testing

Replacing the timing belt at the interval the vehicle manufacturer recommends helps prevent unexpected failure and costly engine damage. Many technicians replace the tensioner, idler pulleys and water pump at the same time. Select the correct part number for your application from the variants listed on this page.
