Detailed Product Overview

The Gates PowerGrip Premium OE Timing Belt T295 is engineered for precise camshaft and crankshaft synchronization in engines that depend on accurate timing. Gates manufactures OE timing belts for a broad range of vehicles, and this belt is designed to meet or exceed OE standards for fit, function, and performance. The T295 is a direct-fit timing belt solution for many Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger, Dodge Magnum, and related platform vehicles, including several interference-engine applications.

This part cross-references Dayco 95295 and Bando TB295 for the same application. If you are servicing a Chrysler Sebring, Dodge Avenger, or Volkswagen Routan, the Gates T295 provides the timing belt specification needed for proper engine operation.

What This Timing Belt Helps Address

• Engine misfire caused by incorrect valve timing
• Noise or irregular operation from a worn timing belt
• Timing drift from belt stretch or material fatigue
• Heat-related belt deterioration in high-temperature engine bays
• Wear from contamination and long service intervals

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify engine code and exact vehicle application before installation, especially on interference engines. Because this belt has no timing marks, follow factory timing procedures and align all timing components carefully during service. Inspect related components such as tensioners, idlers, and seals during timing belt replacement to help ensure proper system operation.
