2005 Buick LeSabre Belt Tensioners

The Dayco automatic belt tensioner features Dayco’s original, patented flat spring design to provide less operating range variation. It reduces the risk of premature accessory bearing failure due to high tension and lessens the risk of belt noise and slippage – or poor performance caused by low tension. A PTFE string wound within the spring resists abrasion and dampens noise. Dayco’s tensioner is also designed with a heavy-duty cast aluminum spring case and arm, which helps resist cracking and fatigue and offers additional strength, lessening the risk of distortion. Additional premium thermoplastic rubber spring slot plugs and rubber O-ring seals help keep contaminants out and zinc coated mounting bolts resist rust.

Product Features:

• Endures the toughest conditions while promoting quieter performance and longer life
• Features a steel pivot tube on specific designs for enhanced stability
• Built to outperform and outlast competitive OE parts
• Meets or exceeds OE quality

Litens holds over 2000 patents and continues to respond to the ever-changing automotive industry by investing heavily in new technology, facilities, and people. 90% of our line is made of products coming from the OE manufacturer, which makes the Litens Tensioning Products portfolio the purest OE tensioning line in the North American aftermarket.

Product Features:

• Manufactured by the one on the world’s largest original equipment tensioner suppliers to ensure proper form, fit, and performance
• Internal “round spring” technology to provide constant belt tension and alignment throughout its service life.
• Installation instructions included.
• Heavy Duty Glass Reinforced Polymer Pulley for optimized dimensional control and running surface durability
• Professional Mechanics will change this tensioner in approx. 20 minutes to 1 hour.
• Due to the fact that belts and tensioners have similar Original Equipment “design life targets”, it is often a best practice to replace the belt tensioner when replacing a worn or broken belt. Belt removal is required to change the tensioner.
