Mitsuboshi belts are the choice of many Asian vehicle manufacturers as original equipment for their vehicles due to their reputation for smooth, quiet performance, rugged durability and enhanced longevity. Mitsuboshi timing belts feature stable, high tensile strength synthetic cords that resist shrinking and stretching, ensuring vehicle timing remains within factory specifications throughout the life of the belt. Every Mitsuboshi timing belt is designed with precision molded teeth that perfectly mesh with your engine's pulleys in pitch, width and length for constant, synchronous power transference and precision timing. Mitsuboshi timing belts incorporate special, premium quality construction materials that assure durability and performance in hot, oily environments. Note: Always adhere to the OE vehicle manufacturer's recommended belt replacement interval and use only premium quality timing belts like Mitsuboshi to prevent possible engine damage that can occur with belt failure. Vehicle engines are engineered with either an "interference" or "non-interference" design. In a non-interference design, belt failure results in the engine stopping but not incurring serious damage. Non-interference engine designs experience catastrophic damage to expensive internal components if a timing belt fails.
