Auxiliary Stretch Belt Removal Tool Set for Multi-Engine Applications

Brief Overview

This auxiliary stretch belt removal tool set is engineered for technicians working across a broad spectrum of European vehicle platforms—PSA, Ford, BMW, Chrysler, Fiat, Mazda, Opel, Peugeot, Renault, Seat, Skoda, VW, Volvo, and more. The kit safely removes and installs elastic stretch-fit V-ribbed belts without damaging the new belt or tensioner pulley, a critical advantage when working on modern engine designs where belt tension is critical to longevity. For shops handling diverse vehicle makes, this tool eliminates the need for multiple single-application solutions, making it a smart investment for fleet maintenance, independent repair facilities, and high-volume service centers. Consider pairing this with tensioner adjustment tools or comprehensive multi-engine belt installation systems for a complete auxiliary belt service solution.

• Low Competition: Niche tool with specific engineering—not commoditized, margins remain healthy

Why This Matters to Your Customers

Modern stretch-fit V-ribbed belts are engineered for precision tension. Attempting removal with improvised methods (screwdrivers, hammers, or pliers) risks:

• Belt Damage: Tears, cracks, or permanent deformation reduce belt lifespan
• Pulley Deformation: Concentrated pressure bends or dents pulley rims, causing misalignment and noise
• Tensioner Strain: Improper belt seating overloads the automatic tensioner, shortening its service life

This kit distributes pressure evenly across the belt and pulley contact surface, ensuring the belt sits correctly the first time.

Typical Applications

• PSA Group (Peugeot, Citroën, Lancia): C2, C3, C4, Boxer
• Ford European: C-Max, Focus, Mondeo, Transit, Courier, Fiesta, Fusion
• BMW Group: 118, 120, 318, 325, 330, 335, 520, 525, 530, 535, 635, 730, X3, X5
• Chrysler: Grand Voyager, Voyager
