The Crankshaft Pulley is a critical component in the engine of a vehicle. It is located at the front end of the engine and mounted on the crankshaft, which is the main rotating shaft responsible for converting the reciprocating motion of the pistons into rotational motion. The primary function of the crankshaft pulley is to drive the engine's accessory belts, such as the serpentine belt. The accessory belts transfer power from the engine's crankshaft to various engine accessories, including the alternator, power steering pump, air conditioning compressor, and water pump.
Attributes:
• Made from high-strength materials to withstand adverse working conditions
• Highly durable and strong enough to endure the constant stresses, vibrations, and torsional forces
• Timing marks that help in aligning the crankshaft with other engine components during timing adjustments
Applications:
This Crankshaft Pulley is a wheel with a grooved rim designed to carry a belt that is used to transfer power from the engine to various accessories such as the alternator, water pump, power steering pump, and air conditioning compressor.
