Launch a new range of TVD pulley kits

Gates new range of TVD pulley kits now include all the necessary crankshaft and installation bolts in one box. Previously, these were difficult to source or not replaced at all which can lead to premature component and system failure.

The initial range consists of 12 references covering the top 870 applications, with further range extensions planned for early 2015. Each full kit will replace the existing TVD without bolts as they are launched.

TVD and bolts replacement
As a result of increasing vibrations inside engine compartments, practically all car manufacturers use Torsional Vibration Dampers (TVDs) in their engines to reduce vibrations, which reduces the wear on other accessories and increases driver comfort.

Over time these harsh conditions take their toll and the TVD should therefore be checked and replaced in due time in order not to compromise the other accessories in the engine.

One kit to do the job right first time
When replacing a TVD on certain applications, mechanics often need new crankshaft and installation bolts, as the old ones can get stuck or damaged when removing the worn out TVD. Gates responds to the market’s technical needs by including all necessary and perfectly matching bolts in the box.
