TVD with overrunning function
An absolute first for the automotive aftermarket: torsional vibration dampers with overrunning function.
With their integrated rubber track, torsional vibration dampers (TVD) are able to neutralize the crankshaft’s vibrations and rotational irregularities that act on the belt drive. This protects the entire belt drive system while also ensuring far smoother and more efficient running. And now a genuinely ground-breaking offering for the automotive aftermarket goes one better: Our torsional vibration dampers with integral overrunning function decouple the belt drive from the crankshaft and isolate high torsional vibrations, paving the way for a low belt tension and reducing belt friction. This eases the strain on all components in the belt drive while also looking after the environment by lowering carbon emissions. Plus, they are fully manufactured to OE quality standards in Germany.
Continental is bringing out this innovation on the following four TVD models:
VD1217 EXTRA
VD1219 EXTRA
VD1220 EXTRA
VD1221 EXTRA
