Motorcycle Spare Parts only sell genuine spare parts made by each manufacturer. The Toothed Belt part has been manufactured by Piaggio and is brand new and dispatched in its original packaging.
The Toothed Belt, manufacturer part number 286162, is a critical automotive component, designed to fit specific models of Aprilia, Derbi, Moto Guzzi, Vespa, Gilera, and Piaggio brands.
Also known as a timing belt, its primary function is to synchronize the movements of the crankshaft and the camshaft in the engine. This synchronization ensures that the engine's valves open and close at the correct times during each cylinder's intake and exhaust strokes. These precise timings facilitate efficient fuel combustion, ensuring optimal engine performance, fuel efficiency, and emissions control.
The toothed belt is characterized by its unique 'toothed' surface. These teeth fit precisely into the grooves on the pulleys of the camshaft and crankshaft. The teeth prevent the belt from slipping, and this ensures better precision in valve timings when compared to 'smooth' belts.
The toothed belt is typically made of high-strength rubber, with fibreglass or Teflon strands for reinforcement. Its structure promotes durability and resistance to heat and wear, critical in the harsh operating conditions inside an engine.
The toothed belt under the part number 286162 is a synchronization tool for internal engine operations in various automotive brands. Its unique design allows for precision in operation, facilitating effective combustion and, optimal vehicle performance and fuel efficiency.
