How to pick a good quality and durable timing belt?
Do you often experience broken timing belts in your car? Have you ever suffered from the loud noise caused by the timing belt?
So, how do you pick a strong and durable high quality timing belt? Now I'm going to break it down for you.
1. Confirm the product material
①Rubber quality: high-quality rubber materials, with good elasticity and toughness, can maintain good flexibility, to ensure a close fit between the belt and the drive wheel, to ensure the effective transmission of power.
② fiber reinforced layer state: contains high strength fiber reinforced layer can increase the tensile strength of the belt, so that it can withstand the engine running at high speeds generated by the huge tensile force, to prevent the belt from breaking.
2.Confirmation of manufacturing process
① Dimensional accuracy: the width, thickness and length of the belt dimensions should meet the standard requirements, and the engine timing system can be perfectly matched.
②Tooth design: the tooth spacing must be uniform, and the shape and size of the teeth should match the groove of the timing wheel. It makes the meshing between the belt and the timing wheel closer, reduces the wear of the teeth, and prolongs the service life of the belt and the timing wheel.
③ Weaving structure: the weaving structure of the internal fibers should be tight and uniform, making the overall strength of the belt more uniform and improving the reliability of the belt.
3. Confirmation of performance:
① High temperature resistance: the timing belt needs to have good high temperature resistance, and be able to maintain stable working condition under high temperature environment, and will not be softened, deformed or damaged due to high temperature.
② wear resistance: good quality timing belt after special surface treatment or wear-resistant material formulations, can effectively reduce friction loss, extend service life.
③ Transmission efficiency: the belt has high transmission efficiency, which can accurately and efficiently transfer the engine power to the camshaft and other components to ensure the normal operation of the engine.
④ Noise: the noise generated during operation cannot be too big, providing a quiet driving environment for drivers.
4. Confirm the manufacturer
①Quality certification: Check whether the belt has passed strict quality certification, such as ISO and other international standard certification. These certifications recognize the quality of the belts and indicate that the quality is guaranteed.
② Reputation: Manufacturers with good reputation and rich production experience should be selected. Such manufacturers usually have advanced production technology and perfect quality management system, and can produce high quality timing belts.
