Review on Gates 38415 Belt Tensioner by Omar Obong
Not Impressed with This Tensioner
My analysis of this tensioner showed that it did not hold up well under automotive stress. The design seemed flimsy and prone to breaking. The one pro is that it wasn`t too expensive, but the cons far outweighed any cost savings. I would not recommend this product to anyone in need of a reliable tensioner....
Pros
- Easy to install and use
Cons
- May require frequent maintenance to ensure proper tension
