Elite™ Drive Belt Tensioner Assembly (49603) by Continental® ContiTech™. This belt tensioner assembly is constructed to meet OE requirements for fit, form, and function. It provides smooth, noiseless, and vibration-free operation thanks to a patented “proportional damping” system, “round” wire torsion spring, highly developed mechanical assembly stake, and other features that make Goodyear tensioners superior to the competition.
Tensioner Pulley Type: 10-rib, serpentine and dual smooth pulleys |
A tensioner, as its name implies, maintains correct tension on the belt to keep it tight against the pulleys. As other components wear out over time, the tensioner compensates for the belt slack. Additionally, it keeps the belt aligned or in plane with the adjacent parts. Finally, it dampens noise and vibration, providing efficient and quiet drive belt system performance. If you are looking for quality belt tensioner assembly that follows OE design and delivers superior operation, Goodyear is the brand you can rely on. It manufactures tensioners taking into account the specific packaging and operating conditions of your vehicle as well as application specific belt layout configuration.
When properly designed and applied, the tensioner will ensure pre-determined, constant tension and proper noise and vibration dampening throughout its life. In the Goodyear tensioner construction, this is achieved thanks to “proportional damping” system, “round” spring design, sturdy OE-style components, etc. The damping system is tuned to the needs of your vehicle. This tensioner is built using round, torsion-spring technology instead of a flat spring ('clockspring') that better balances the offset load within the tensioner. The corrosion-resistant spring is custom designed for each tensioner application. OE-style pulley, locating pin, and lift lug allow for mounting accuracy, correct alignment, and easy installation. The well-designed Goodyear tensioners also prevent belt slip, improve belt system alignment, and optimize belt uptime.
