Features

High-performance "RPM / Racing" timing belt - built for interference engines and higher-stress applications
HNBR elastomeric compound with reinforced tooth jacket - improved heat & wear resistance for long service life
Fiberglass tensile cord for high strength and minimal stretch under load - ideal for V6 engines with interference timing
197-tooth belt length with 20 mm top width - matches required spec for listed V6 applications
Modified Curvilinear tooth profile for precise tooth engagement and reliable valve timing under all operating conditions
Blue "RPM" finish denoting performance-grade belt - often preferred for aftermarket, tuned, or high-stress use
Designed to install like OEM belt - direct-fit replacement when engine/belt-spec match is confirmed
High-strength construction helps prevent belt stretch or failure - especially important for interference-type engines under heavy load

Product Description

The Gates T329RB RPM Timing Belt is a high-performance, heavy-duty replacement belt designed for a broad range of Honda and Acura V6 engines (3.0 L, 3.5 L, 3.7 L) produced roughly between 2003 and 2017 - including Accord, Odyssey, Pilot, Ridgeline, MDX, TL, RL, and TSX (when the belt specification matches 197 teeth and interference-engine timing). When correctly matched, it provides a direct-fit replacement that meets or exceeds original timing-belt specifications.

Built from a durable HNBR compound and reinforced with a fiberglass tensile cord, this belt offers up to triple the heat resistance and significantly enhanced tensile strength compared to standard belts. Its 197-tooth, 20 mm design with a reinforced tooth jacket ensures accurate cam-to-crank timing, even under high load, heat, or RPM - critical for interference-type V6 engines where timing accuracy is essential for engine safety and longevity.

Gates T329RB is well-suited for regular maintenance, belt-replacement intervals, or upgraded/tuned engines requiring robust timing components. Before purchase or installation, confirm your engine code, displacement, and required belt-tooth spec (197 teeth) to ensure compatibility. When installed with proper tension and alignment, this RPM belt offers improved durability and peace of mind over standard timing belts.
