Pioneer Automotive Harmonic Balancer Crankshaft Damper

The Pioneer Automotive harmonic balancer, also called a crankshaft damper, torsional damper or vibration damper, mounts to the front of the crankshaft. It absorbs torsional vibration from the engine. It also works as the pulley that drives the accessory belt for components such as the alternator and water pump. Pioneer Automotive Industries has made automotive components since 1946.

Key Features:

• Made to OE specifications to restore proper engine operation
• Dynamically balanced to absorb crankshaft vibration
• Precision machined for smooth performance across engine speeds
• Strong iron construction for durability
• OEM-equivalent bonded rubber damping element on applicable designs
• SFI-certified options available in select applications
• Quality tested

A worn harmonic balancer can let the outer ring shift or separate from the hub. This misaligns the belt and can lead to crankshaft damage. Replacing it with a Pioneer balancer helps protect the crankshaft and keeps the accessory drive running smoothly.
