Adjustable Belt Tensioner

Katech Performance

Katech Performance has introduced an adjustable belt tensioner for General Motors (GM) Generation III and Generation IV LS engines.

The lightweight tensioner is machined from billet 6061 T6 aluminum and replaces the stock unit to eliminate the problem of the accessory belt jumping off the pulley during performance driving. It features a higher pulley sidewall for more secure belt placement and utilizes the factory accessory belt.

Katech's tensioner comes fully assembled and torqued with a tall flange pulley so it’s ready to install, and you don’t have to disable the stock tensioner – or buy one – to salvage the pulley. That saves time and money.

Katech Performance’s adjustable belt tensioner is available for all Gen III and Gen IV small block powered trucks, including the Chevrolet Silverado/SSR/Tahoe and GMC Sierra/Yukon (KAT-A4426).

The tensioner features an attractive black anodized finish. Red and blue anodizing is also available.
