Belts Features
Motorcraft belts are manufactured with premium quality in mind
- Polyester cords: Resist stretching, minimize slippage and provide excellent performance with short adjustment drives
- Laminated edge: Die-cut edge design provides quiet, efficient operation
- Deterioration resistance: Stands up to grease, oil, dirt high temperatures
- COG Belts
- V-Ribbed Belts
- Belt Tensioners
Molded-cog design for Ford and Lincoln vehicles
- Designed to flex easily around even the smallest pulley
- The molded cog design (as opposed to cut cogs) helps preserve belt strength, eliminate rough edges and provide quiet operation
High-quality serpentine belts for Ford and Lincoln vehicles
- Drive numerous engine accessories, including alternator, water pump, cooling fan, air conditioning compressor and power steering pump
- Require less energy to bend around the pulleys
- Provide more efficient transfer of horsepower from the belt to the accessory
- Can be used in conjunction with standard belts to drive individual accessories for the same engine
- Recommended by Ford Motor Company
Engineered for Maximum Performance and Minimal Noise
Motorcraft belt tensioners are specifically designed for Ford and Lincoln vehicles to provide the proper tension on the drive belt to help ensure all accessories perform as designed with minimum belt squeal
Motorcraft Belt Tensioners feature:- Precise alignment for minimized belt wear and noise
- Maintains proper belt tension throughout the life of the belt
- Provides the correct damping for smooth operation and reduced vibration throughout the operating range
- Premium castings resist cracks and fatigue for long life
- Sealed-for-life bearing that minimizes regular maintenance during the service life
Designed and Built to Last
- Durability test specification – 10 years/150,000 miles
- Designed for long life – each Motorcraft Belt Tensioner is subjected to numerous tests in the design stage including:
- Key life testing - Motorcraft Belt Tensioners are tested on the engine/vehicle application for which they were designed in addition to all bench testing
- Corrosion testing – tests the effects of a corrosive environment on various components of the tensioner. Upon completion of 240 hour test, tensioner should show no signs of:
- Noise
- Parallelism and offset change
- Spring load change
- Damping must remain within spec: plate push-off test is also conducted upon completion of corrosion test
