FAQ

What exactly is the task / function of the component?
The belt transmits rotary motion from the crankshaft to auxiliary units such as the alternator or pump. Length, profile and tensioning condition determine slip, noise and bearing load.

How can you recognize a defect / typical symptoms?
Typical symptoms are squeaking, belt dust, loading or conveying problems, visible cracks or fraying edges. Incorrect tension or misalignment cause similar symptoms to material wear.

How do you check / test the component?
The condition of the profile, cracks, shiny spots, alignment of the pulleys and belt tension are checked in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications. Idler and tensioning pulleys should also be checked for smooth running and play.

When should it be replaced?
The belt should be replaced if there are cracks, hardened edges, frayed tension members or when the wear indicator reaches the end. Preventive replacement after maintenance intervals is common, especially before long periods of use.

How do you check compatibility?
The OEM number, tread type, length, width or number of ribs and the specific drive guide are important. Even minor deviations can change the tension and accessory unit function.
