Katech Motorsports LS Manual Billet Serpentine Belt Tensioner

Katech Motorsports LS Manual Billet Serpentine Belt Tensioner

Engineered for Sustained High-Load Motorsports Use.

The Katech Motorsports LS Manual Billet Serpentine Belt Tensioner is engineered for professional racing applications that require consistent belt tension, precise pulley alignment, and reliable accessory drive operation during sustained high-RPM use.

Developed for Katech TA2 race engines, this tensioner uses a rigid manual-adjustment design rather than a spring-loaded mechanism. The solid billet body increases rigidity under sustained belt loads and helps minimize tensioner deflection, belt tension variation, and pulley misalignment during prolonged competition use.
