Application Context

Timing chain service is one of the most demanding precision jobs in diesel and petrol engine rebuilds. Improper separation can damage irreplaceable chain links; incorrect riveting creates catastrophic timing failures. This set eliminates guesswork by providing purpose-designed tools for each step of the process:

  1. Separation: Clean, controlled removal of worn or damaged chain links
  2. Riveting: Precise reassembly ensuring proper chain tension and synchronization
  3. Alignment: Clamps and pins hold components in exact position during service, preventing costly rework

For shops servicing Mercedes diesel engines (especially 2.2D–3.0D models), this tool set is not optional—it's essential infrastructure for reliable, profitable timing work.

Call to Value

Stock this set to position your shop as a Mercedes diesel specialist. The combination of separation, riveting, and alignment tools in one case eliminates multiple tool purchases and setup time. For distributors, this is a high-value SKU that appeals to independent mechanics, small fleets, and rebuild shops—all willing to invest in proven timing service equipment.

Recommended for resellers targeting diesel mechanics and engine rebuild specialists across European and North American markets.
