Meyle Adds New V-ribbed Belt Kits to Product Line

Meyle has added 13 more products to its range of MEYLE ORIGINAL V ribbed belt kits for trucks. Repair professionals now have access to a wider range of truck applications. With the addition of the new products, Meyle’s total number of references has gone up to 18. The full-service kit that is marketed under one MEYLE reference comprises the belt tensioner, the idler and guide pulleys and the V-ribbed belt. The entire kit comes ready for installation to make the lives of repair technicians easier.

Meyle Original tensioner and idler pulleys are made of steel, and this allows them to distribute heat a lot more effectively than rubber pulleys. Due to the quality of the materials used, the pulley has the capability to maintain its integrity even under the highest operating temperatures. The quality of the Meyle products is such that even the tankpool24 Racing Team has used the company as its technology partner for the past five years. The team uses MEYLE ORIGINAL tensioner and idler pulleys to keep its race trucks in the best shape for the FIA European Truck Racing Championship.

The V belt is the most important drive belt in the vehicle system. It is used for driving many major components of the vehicle like the alternator and the water pump. In the event of any damage to the V ribbed belt is damaged, it is recommended that also the tensioner and idle pulleys be replaced to prevent potential early system failure or even engine breakdown.
