Produced for heavy-duty vehicles and buses with multiple accessories, Dayco HD poly-V belts are made from EPDM material to resist heat and are compliant with the latest standards, guaranteeing resistance, reliability, low noise and longer service life. Engineered for high torque and power pulses, these belts also feature specially treated cords within the belt to resist stretching and ensure length stability.

Product Features:

• Engineered to handle operating conditions with temperatures up to 130°C (266°F)
• Designed for multiple accessories such as A/C, power steering pumps, alternators and water pumps
• Capable of delivering excellent performance in high torque and high power pulse applications
• Specially formulated treated cord insures length and tension stability on heavy duty diesel engine drives for the life of the belt

Dayco ela (elastic) or stretch belts are specifically designed for two, three, and four point drives that are designed to use self-tensioning belts. Although these belts may look like standard poly rib belts, they are very different. These specially designed elastic belts have self-tensioning capabilities required by specific OE drives. Vehicles that are manufactured with stretch belts must replace them with stretch belts. These belts are not interchangeable with standard constructed belts of their same size. Dayco ela belts utilize a proprietary EPDM construction that is designed to elongate over the fixed pulley system, and then maintain the required belt tension over the life of the belt. The backbone behind the Dayco ela belt is its specially developed polyamide tensile member, which allows for high elongation required for installation, yet provides the proper tension maintenance properties to transmit the accessory loads demanded for the drive. This belt construction incorporates 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. Stretch belts have unique installation instructions depending on the OE application. Installation may require a specialized tool for the application or a simple zip tie. Do not attempt to install by prying the belt on the pulleys. Dayco provides detailed instructions on the reverse side of the sleeve.

Product Features:

• Utilizes a proprietary EPDM construction that is designed to elongate over the fixed pulley system, and then maintain the required belt tension over the life of the belt
• Specially developed polyamide tensile member, which allows for high elongation required for installation, yet provides the proper tension maintenance properties to transmit the accessory loads demanded for the drive
• Incorporates 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
• These specially designed elastic belts have self-tensioning capabilities required by specific OE drives designed for a stretch belt

All ContiTech V-Belts are quiet, OE-quality and virtually service free. The only time these belts require attention is during installation. Designed to be oil-resistant and temperature-stable from -22F to 176F (30C to 80C), ContiTech V-Belts are open-flanked, toothed, and shaped for greater traction and torque. High performance construction features include a synthetic fiber fabric cover, a special polyester cord designed to permit tightly controlled shrink, plus a polychloroprene rubber body, integrally molded cogs, and raw edges.

Product Features:

• OE-Equivalent.
• Direct fit for easy installation.
• Resistant against wear, oil and heat.
• Polyester fiber tensile members and a ribbed belt design.

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.

Product Features:

• Designed for the majority of automotive vehicle applications on the road today
• High-quality materials help resist wear and improve belt life
• Features premium lubricated bearings to extend service life
• Meets or exceeds OE quality

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.

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

Drive Belt

This Litens belt tensioner is supplied by the original equipment (O.E.) tensioner supplier and meets all form, fit, and performance characteristics of the original equipment part. As with the original equipment part, this replacement tensioner is manufactured in Europe and produced for serpentine belt routing applications. This part fits both BMW cars and SUV’s. The tensioner maintains the O.E. round spring technology as well as the internal damping design specified for this application. This higher damping consequently reduces arm motion and wear as well as an optimized install pin included for ease on tensioner replacement. Litens is the world’s largest supplier of original equipment (O.E.) power transmission products. At Litens, we design systems that are more efficient, resulting in tangible fuel economy/emissions benefits. 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:

• Designed and engineered by the Original Equipment supplier of this application.
• Internal “round spring” technology to provide constant belt tension and alignment throughout its service life. The internal damping design provides quiet, smooth, system performance.
• Heavy duty thermoplastic pulley for long life. Pulley specs: 70mm (OD) x 17mm (ID) x 32mm (Width)
• Install Pin Included for Ease of Installation.
• Accessory drive belts and tensioners are manufactured with similar design life targets. Since belt removal is required to change the tensioner, replacing both will extend the system service life and lower labor costs versus individual replacement.
• Belt removal is required to change the tensioner. Therefore, doing both together will extend accessory drive life and lower overall labor versus performing these services separately.
• Installation instructions included.
