Quality


Great quality that i will keep using.


Seems like a durable product and it says it is made in canada so great quality.


Eliminated noise (bearing was bad) without having to replace entire belt tensioner unit which would have been much more involved.


Installed the gates 38028 belt tensioner pulley on a 2004 acura tsx in about 10 minutes.

Price


It's been working great for about two months, and it was way less expensive than the same part from the dealer!


Much cheaper than buying an entire tensioner assembly, and this is from a reputable supplier, not some no name budget supplier.

Competitiveness


I don't know the brand that was replaced earlier, but this gates has the same manufactured name on the pulley.


I learned this the hard way and couldn't find the nut once it fell out, so i had to run back to the store for another one.

    When you take out the bolt on the middle watch out for the nut behind the tensioner
