Product Description

The Gates T286RB High-Performance Timing Belt is designed for Honda and Acura V6 engines from 1998 to 2004, including Odyssey, Accord V6, Pilot, TL, CL, and MDX models. Its reinforced HNBR construction and fiberglass tensile cords provide superior strength, heat resistance, and durability compared to standard belts. The reinforced tooth jacket reduces wear and ensures reliable cam and crank synchronization in interference-type engines.

With 197 teeth, 62.05-inch length, and 26 mm width, this belt matches OEM specifications for direct replacement. Its performance-grade design reduces the risk of belt stretch and premature failure, making it ideal for stock replacements or high-stress engine applications.

T286RB is suitable for regular maintenance, timing-belt replacements, or durability upgrades. Confirm your vehicle's engine code and year before ordering to ensure proper fitment.
