Timing belt kits at a close look!

The timing belt system is a vital and vulnerable part of the internal combustion engine and failure is often a costly affair. That is why it is important to use only the best components, to ensure a proper replacement and not least comply with the service intervals.

Only the best is good enough
That is why you will only find belts from the world’s largest manufacturer - Gates – in Triscan’s timing belt kits. In total, Gates supplies globally more than 75% of all belts for the OE market (OEM) and the aftermarket (OES). Gates’ timing belt components are used as OE on e.g. Alfa Romeo, Audi, Citroën, Fiat, Ford, Honda, Mazda, Mercedes, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Opel, Peugeot, Porsche, Renault, Toyota, Volkswagen, Volvo and many others.

 

 

 

Triscan ref. 8647 28032 - all parts are original mounted on eg. Citroën C5, Ford Mondeo and Peugeot 407

 

Always the same construction!
With a Gates OES-belt you are – unlike other manufacturers – secured the same quality and construction as you will find in an OEM-belt. All timing belts have a polyester reinforced outer surface which protects against wear/tear from the tensioner and pulley. In addition, the timing belts are made of high-quality HNBR rubber, which resists contamination and heat, and thus increases the longevity of the belt.

The tensioners and pulleys are no exceptions
Therefore, the demand for quality of these parts in Triscan’s timing belt kits is also very high. In this case, we use parts from only the best and most important players on the market – e.g. Gates, INA, Litens and GMB – this way you are secured a very high and consistent quality.

A complete kit – now also with water pump
In Triscan’s timing belt kits you will find all necessary bolts, o-rings and other miscellaneous parts, which is a must in order to replace the timing belt drive. Furthermore, you also have the opportunity to choose from a wide programme of Triscan’s timing belt kits with water pumps targeting car models where it can prove useful to replace the water pump in connection with the replacement of the timing belt kit.

Installation instructions for problematic engines
For problematic types of engines, you will find detailed and richly illustrated installation instructions included in the yellow Triscan boxes - to ensure a proper fit.
