Review on Gates 38195 Belt Tensioner Assembly by Brandon Havlicek
The tensioner looks good, but costs extra.
The pulley has a rotating plate, non-rotating axles keep the tensioner looking good, but replacing the pulley costs extra. I wish it wasn't so brittle or tighter bearing tolerance.
Pros
- Round torsion spring design provides reliability as well as constant tension
Cons
- Good but not great
