DENVER, Colo. Gates
Corp. has announced the availability of an expanded line of belt drive
and cooling system solution kits for the automotive aftermarket. From
belt jump-off to chronic belt noise and cooling system enhancements,
these precision-engineered solution kits were developed to focus on a
variety of engine operational issues on domestic and import vehicles.
They address a wider range of applications and are tailored for
specific models to include specially constructed belts, upgraded
pulleys and tensioners and other belt drive and cooling system
components.
“Gates now offers a broader range of solution
kits,” said Tom Trojan, Gates marketing manager. “These kits enable
service technicians to enhance belt drive and cooling systems which, in
some cases, can eliminate troublesome noise, or in other more severe
cases prevent a roadside breakdown.”
Service technicians are
alerted to the issues that the solution kits address through technical
service bulletins (TSBs). With Gates Solution Kits, technicians now
have a viable option for improving engine performance on these
applications throughout the life of their customer’s vehicle. Millions
of people are driving their vehicles longer before purchasing a new one
and as a result monitoring belt and cooling systems is critical for
service technicians because of the wear and tear these miles represent
and the maintenance they will require.
Gates Solution Kits
are available at local parts stores throughout the United States. For
more information, contact a local Gates sales representative or
distributor.
