2016 Lincoln MKC Belts and Hoses

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

SERPENTINE BELT

Dayco ela self-tensioning belts incorporate a wear-resistant EPDM rib material, along with a highly elastic EPDM cushion rubber that surrounds the polyamide tensile cord, thus providing the required adhesion and flexibility to maintain lasting performance. The backbone behind the Dayco ela self-tensioning belt is its polyamide tensile member, which allows the high elongation required for installation, yet provides the proper tension maintenance properties to transmit the accessory loads demanded for the drive.

Product Features:

• Designed for two- to four-point drives that do not require automatic or manual tensioning
• Provides self-tensioning capabilities required by specific OE drives designed for a ‘stretch’ belt
• Elasticity allows for long-lasting performance and proper tension

Constructed with aramid reinforced EPDM compounds, the Dayco poly-V serpentine belt delivers  more than just OE quality. Developed through extensive laboratory and road testing, the rib profile in this EPDM belt has been engineered to conform to high mileage, worn or misaligned drives and helps eliminate noisy belt conditions. Dayco poly rib serpentine belts offer extensive flexibility and longer service life, while handling higher workloads and temperatures.

Product Features:

• Provides full coverage for today’s light-duty vehicle market, especially vehicles with troublesome drives
• Engineered to help address noise issues caused by the belt drive 
• Capable of handling more extreme temperatures and workloads
• Made in the USA

Designed to replace original equipment manufacturer hose, Dayco Molded Heater Hose are built with knitted reinforcement and EPDM construction which provides high strength and resistance to oil, mud, salt, road debris, ozone, coolants, and temperature variations of -40F (-40C) to +257F (+125C) that are required for OEM hose replacements. The inner base tube is reinforced with knitted rayon for maximum strength and burst resistance for the life of the hose. The Dayco Molded Radiator and Bypass Hose has a convenient plastic hang strap for quick and easy merchandising. In addition to meeting SAE J20R4, Class D-1 requirements, this hose is now designed to meet Type EC electro- chemical requirements as specified in SAE J1684.

Product Features:

• Made with synthetic EPDM rubber compounds that provide resistance to deterioration from ozone, coolants, and temperature variations of -40F (-40C) to +257F (+125C)
• The inner base tube is reinforced with knitted rayon for maximum strength and burst resistance for the life of the hose
• Meets SAE J20R4, Class D-1 requirements for improved service hose
• Meets Type EC electro-chemical requirements as specified in SAE J1684; which eliminates premature deterioration of the inner tube caused by the build up of static electric charges

Heater Hose

Dayco idler/tensioner pulleys are built with smoother surfaces and tighter dimensional tolerances, which translates to less vibration and longer belt life. In addition to stamped, forged steel and powdered metal pulleys, Dayco also designs ultra-strong plastic pulleys with specially formulated glass-filled polymers that resist wear and tear. Premium lubricated ball bearings and double high temperature seals ensure peak bearing performance, the most critical element of a pulley’s service life.
