    EVERY COMPONENT OF YOUR BELT TENSIONER IS CRITICAL.

    The accessory belt drive tensioner automatically adjusts tension in the Micro-V® belt to ensure proper function and output of accessory components, dampens peak loads during engine acceleration and deceleration, and ensures your belts and engine perform when your vehicle needs them most. From casting quality to the design of internal components, we understand that every aspect of a tensioner is critical to long service life, which is why we've engineered our DriveAlign® tensioners to exceed some of the most rigorous quality and performance standards in the industry.
