Symptoms of a Faulty Tensioner

A faulty tensioner can lead to various issues that affect the performance and safety of your machinery. Recognizing the symptoms early can prevent further damage and costly repairs.

• Noisy Operation: Unusual squeaking or rattling sounds from the belt area, indicating improper tension or misalignment.

• Belt Slippage: Frequent belt slippage leads to decreased efficiency and potential overheating of the engine or machinery.

• Vibration Issues: Noticeable vibrations during operation suggest the tensioner no longer maintains the proper tension.

• Belt Wear: Excessive or uneven wear on the belts, signaling that the tensioner isn't functioning correctly.

• Engine Misalignment: Misaligned engine components are often caused by a tensioner that can no longer keep the belt in place.

Recommended Use/Applications

• Industrial: Heavy-duty machinery in industrial settings.

• Agricultural: It is recommended for agricultural machinery requiring consistent belt tension.

• Forklifts: Performance in forklifts by preventing belt slippage.
