Belts and Tensioners
Belts and Tensioners are critical components within both commercial vehicles and heavy equipment machinery. Driving Belt Tensioners are pulleys mounted on spring mechanisms or adjustable pivots that keep tension on an engine belt which is critical to engine function.
Further, Timing Belts are set to control the camshafts within your engine, to open and close valves for a smooth combustion process. Timing Belts and Drive Belt Tensioners are components that regularly become defective, and not always with significant warning to replace prior to breakage or defect. Within our supply chain, we have access to a number of original equipment manufacturers who specialise in the design and manufacture of Belts and Tensioners.

When should you replace Belts and Tensioners?
Belts and Tensioners are under continuous strain while your commercial vehicles are idling stationary and while manoeuvring and driving. Replacing your Belts and Tensioners at regular mileage intervals is a great way of preventing them becoming defective and causing the vehicle to be off-road unnecessarily; but there are some indicators that these components might be beginning to fail, such as:
-
Ticking noise coming from the engine during idling
-
Stuttering or inconsistent turnover of the engine
-
Intermittent engine misfires
-
Leaking oil from the front of the engine
