Product focus: Freewheel Pulley by Valeo
- The freewheel pulley is the mechanical link between the alternator and the engine output crankshaft pulley. This alternator component is subject to high stress: it rotates up to 12,000 r/min and must be changed every 50,000 miles (80.000km).
- The main benefits of a freewheel pulley versus a solid one:
- Stops friction loss due to belt slippage
- Secures the belt drive system by absorbing engine acyclisms
- Allows the alternator motor to keep turning in freewheel mode when engine is coasting or stopping
- Over 100 million vehicles are equipped with Valeo’s freewheel pulley in Europe, covering more than 30% of the car park. This is expected to reach 80% by 2030.
