Chain and belt tensioning

Belt tensioning with RunRight tensioner

Chains and belts are both naturally prone to stretching, and… if proper tensioning is not maintained in a system… a number of issue may present themselves, inclusive of suboptimal operation, premature system wear, and, ultimately, system failure.
