Can the dolphin belt be replaced with a chain?

A dolphin’s leash cannot be turned into a chain. Reason: Chains are mainly divided into two types: sleeve roller chains and toothed chains. Among them, the roller chain is affected by its innate structure, so the rotation noise is more obvious than that of the synchronous belt, and the transmission resistance and inertia are correspondingly greater. The belt is tensioned by installing an automatic tensioning wheel, while the chain is automatically tensioned by a special wear-resistant tensioning mechanism. If you want to use a timing chain instead of a formal belt, the automatic tensioning mechanism will also need to be replaced, which is more expensive. Role: The timing belt and timing chain are the power transmission devices of the car. The power generated by the engine needs to be transmitted through them to drive the car forward. Note: Replacement: The belt will age or break after being used for a long time. Under normal circumstances, the belt should be replaced every three years or 50,000 kilometers to ensure driving safety.
