Tension mounts in belt and chain drives
Tensioners reduce noise, transmit torque more efficiently, reduce wear and so prolong the life of belts and chains.
The Zetasassi line of belt and chain tensioners from QTC improve performance in industrial automation applications by keeping constant tension in belt and chain drive systems These tensioners are designed to reduce noise, transmit torque more efficiently, reduce wear, with the added benefit of increasing the life of belts and chains

Catalogue has over 9000 transmission components
A new free 368-page catalogue simplifies the specification of timing belt pulleys, belts, belt and roller chain tensioners and other power transmission components.
With spring-loaded Econobelt tensioners, which are stocked in rotational and linear movement types, users can adjust the tension on the chain or belt.
They are easy to install and are maintenance-free.
In typical applications, using these tensioners can result in 23% increase in chain life, 7% reduction in vibrations, 12% reduction in noise, reduction in chain slackening, and the elimination of the need for maintenance.
A complete image page index of these tensioners can be found on the QTC website, which provides dimensional details, price, availability and online ordering.
