Title: Which Timing Belt You Should Choose
1Which Timing Belt You Should Choose.
2If you are looking for a replacement for a timing
belt then you might require to choose between
these three main brands Contitech, Gates, Dayco.
How do you choose?
3CHOOSING THE FACTORY BELT
For installation at the factory, all 3 of these
manufacturers supply vehicle manufacturers with
timing belts. You may truly see the OEM logo
printed right alongside the manufacturer logo if
you buy an OEM belt from a dealer.
4VW AG / CONTITECH
At a VW dealership, this belt was purchased.
Certain markings mean that contitech manufactured
this belt for VW to sell via their dealership
network. All 3 of these manufacturers supply
factory belts, so all of them will be genuine /
factory quality belts, designed to endure the
factory service interval.
5CONTITECH VS. CONTINENTAL
Continental is a global brand made up of a wide
variety of rubber-focused industries. They even
make tires for bikes you have probably seen
continental tires at your local tire shop! For
all sorts of belt manufacturing, contitech is the
division trade name timing, serpentine,
v-belts, etc. You can be sure it is a Contitech
branded belt if you see that a Continental belt
is advertised.
6THE DAYCO QUESTION
The white-colored interior is famous for the
timing belt that is produced by Dayco timing
belts. It is made up of a special proprietary
Kevlar weave. A patented tooth profile is used by
Dayco belts. You can see that the middle of the
tooth is depressed, making a kind of W shape if
you look at the tooth.
7These exclusive qualities make their belts extra
durable than their competitors. In our
experience, through the full-service interval,
belts by Gates Continental are just as
dependable. (For obvious reasons, we dont test
belts beyond the service interval, neither
should you!) The exclusive Dayco design does
come with a drawback, however suppleness.
Brand new Dayco belts are much less flexible,
therefore much harder to work with than belts
from Gates / Continental. This may create
installing a Dayco belt much harder, depending on
the application. For example, on the ALH engine.
