Litens 999530A Automatic Serpentine Belt Tensioner Assembly

The Litens 999530A is an automatic serpentine belt tensioner assembly designed and engineered by Litens, the world's largest supplier of original equipment belt tensioners. This replacement part meets all form, fit, and performance characteristics of the original equipment component, manufactured to meet or exceed O.E. performance and life specifications.

Key Features:

• Premium chrome-silicon steel spring for consistent tension
• Internal damping technology for smooth, quiet operation
• 6203 ball bearing for extended service life
• Precision-molded plastic pulley to exacting specifications
• Lift-lug feature for simplified installation
• Internal round spring technology maintains constant belt tension and alignment throughout service life

This tensioner was specifically designed for 2012 Ford Focus vehicles with 2.0L GDI engines (6-ribbed configuration) during approximately six months of production before Ford switched to the 4-rib design. The automatic design compensates for belt stretch and wear, ensuring optimal accessory drive system performance. As belts and tensioners share similar design life targets, it's recommended to replace the tensioner when replacing a worn or broken serpentine belt.
