When used in power transmission drives, all V-belts and roller chains will elongate significantly over time if not properly maintained. Incorrect belt or chain tension will lead to increased downtime, lower equipment productivity and inflated maintenance costs. To achieve optimum drive performance, correct drive belt or chain tension must be maintained. The solution? A self-adjusting T-Max Tensioner from Fenner Drives! T-Max automatic tensioners eliminate the need for regular manual retensioning of drives. Avoid the risk of inadvertently over-tensioning drive components and enhance your overall drive operating efficiency.

Combined with a PowerMax idler pulley or chain sprocket from Fenner Drives, an automatic T-Max Tensioner can be used to:

Extend the life of critical drive components
Reduce system downtime
Increase drive efficiency
Reduce belt and chain whip on long center drives
Ensure drive components do not snag obstructions
Reduce resonant frequency of chain drives
