OEM GM Belts

What are the Three Belts in a Car?

There are three primary types of belts in a car:

1. Serpentine Belt

   The serpentine belt is a single, winding belt that runs through the engine and is responsible for driving multiple engine components, including the alternator, power steering pump, air conditioning compressor, and water pump.

2. Timing Belt (Timing Chain)

   The timing belt, also known as the timing chain in some cars, is responsible for synchronizing the rotation of the crankshaft and camshafts in the engine. This belt is crucial for the proper operation of the engine’s valves and pistons.

3. V-Belts (Accessory Belts)

   Some older vehicles have individual V-belts that drive specific accessories. These individual belts are used to transfer rotational power from one pulley to another efficiently.
