Description

Camshaft Alignment Tool Set for Mercedes M112/M113 Engines

Brief Overview

This camshaft alignment tool kit is engineered specifically for Mercedes-Benz M112 and M113 petrol engines with chain-driven timing systems. The set delivers everything required to lock camshafts during timing chain service, belt replacement, or head work—eliminating the risk of valve damage from accidental rotation. Whether you're servicing high-displacement V6 or V8 engines, this kit ensures precision alignment without guesswork. If your workshop handles multiple Mercedes platforms, consider pairing this with an engine timing tool set for broader Mercedes petrol and diesel coverage.

Key Features

  • Dual Camshaft Locking Adapters: One right-hand and one left-hand adapter, precisely machined to lock both camshafts simultaneously
  • Dedicated Camshaft Spanner: Flat lever with ergonomic red-painted handle for controlled adjustment and lockdown
  • Four Locating Pins: Silver cylindrical pins ensure proper component alignment and prevent accidental shift during work
  • Molded Carrying Case: Durable blue plastic case with recessed slots keeps all components organized and protected between jobs
  • Instruction Label: Yellow safety label on case lid (specifications in native language)
  • Zinc-Passivated & Polished Finish: Corrosion-resistant metal components withstand workshop environments

Business Advantages for Resellers

  • High-Demand Niche: Mercedes petrol timing work is recurring—shops that own this tool will buy repeatedly for related services
  • Limited Competition: Specialized M112/M113 kit (not generic VAG or Asian engine tools)
  • Professional Positioning: Selling this positions your shop as a serious Mercedes specialist
  • Durability: Steel construction withstands years of workshop use—minimal warranty claims
  • Complete Kit: No supplementary purchases required; customer gets everything needed for first job
  • Bulk Opportunity: Larger operations (fleet shops, multi-bay facilities) often standardize on branded timing kits; volume orders have strong margins

Technical Application Notes

  • Chain-Drive Only: This kit applies exclusively to M112/M113 engines with chain-driven camshafts (not belt-driven variants)
  • Proper Lockdown: Both adapters must engage simultaneously to prevent unintended cam rotation during work
  • Spanner Leverage: The flat lever with handle provides controlled adjustment—do not force or over-tighten
  • Locating Pins: These four pins ensure repeatable positioning across multiple service cycles; do not lose them
  • Storage: Keep kit in the molded case to prevent component loss or damage

Why Resellers Choose This Kit

This tool addresses a specific pain point: Mercedes M112/M113 timing work requires precision that hand tools cannot reliably provide. Shops either buy the right tool or risk expensive engine damage. Once a mechanic uses this kit successfully, they will request it for every M112/M113 service. Stock this in your catalog as a cornerstone Mercedes specialty tool, and you'll see consistent turnover and customer loyalty.
