Timing belt tensioner roller MITSUBISHI MD140071

Description:

Timing belt tensioner roller MD140071 MITSUBISHI is a timing belt drive component that provides the necessary belt tension. The timing belt must be tensioned with a certain effort so that it does not slip and wear out prematurely.

There are two types of timing belt tensioner rollers:

Hydraulic - use a hydraulic belt tensioning mechanism. These rollers have a piston that moves under the influence of oil pressure.

Mechanical - use a mechanical belt tensioning device. These rollers have a spring or other mechanism that provides belt tension.

Timing belt tensioner rollers are usually made of steel or aluminum. They can be equipped with a bearing to reduce friction and increase service life.

Additional Information:

Timing belt tensioner rollers must be replaced in accordance with the vehicle manufacturer's recommendations. If the timing belt tensioner roller fails, it can cause the belt to be too tight or too loose. In both cases, this can lead to premature wear of the belt and, ultimately, to its rupture.
