Timing Belts: What They Are and How They Work
In order for your engine to work properly, all of its parts must be moving at a constant and timed pace. If your timing belt breaks or slips, your engine will not run properly, leaving you stranded. Professional automotive mechanics should regularly inspect your timing belt as part of your vehicle's maintenance to ensure it is not damaged or worn.
Often, drivers do not realize how crucial the timing belt is to the engine's performance. It is responsible for synchronizing the engine's operations so it works optimally. In order for the two halves of the engine to run simultaneously, the timing belt connects the crankshaft and pistons with the camshafts, intake and exhaust valves.
In the course of driving, heat and stress stretch the timing belt. Once it begins to stretch and deteriorate, the teeth can begin to wear out, resulting in the belt "slipping", or breaking. A slip or break can affect the camshaft's position, which has a very narrow tolerance. The valves and pistons within the engine may contact each other, resulting in devastating damage that is very expensive to repair. Get more info about Helical Offset Tooth Arrow-Shaped Timing Belts.
If this important component should happen to break or slip while you are driving your vehicle, you will probably experience an abrupt halt in the engine and may end up coasting to a quick stop. The belt will stop working and you will be stranded, requiring a tow truck to get your vehicle to an automotive repair shop. A nonfunctional belt will cost you time and money.
A certified mechanic who specializes in the maintenance of your brand of vehicle should regularly inspect your belt to prevent slipping or breaking. It is imperative to conduct routine maintenance to identify any potential problems before costly damages occur. Repairs to broken or slipped timing belts can be quite expensive. Regular inspection and maintenance should avoid such occurrences.
As most timing belts are hidden under protective covers, it is difficult to inspect them. You must enlist the help of a certified mechanic in order to determine if it needs to be repaired. A timing belt often drives the water pump, so you usually have to remove it to replace the water pump. The water pump and belt are usually replaced together in order to prevent another labor-intensive repair from occurring once the water pump fails.
Y-2000
Y-2000-16 (2000-S8M-16) are potential replacement belts for Y-2000. Timing Belts have arrow-shaped helical offset tooth profile. Belts consist of two components, including polyurethane body and tensile cord (Steel, Kevlar). Polyurethane body is extremely wear and fatigue resistant and highly flexible. Tensile Cords give high flexibility, accuracy and long service life. So bonding of both materials provides high power transmission performance.
