To support the growing diesel-fueled passenger truck market, Dayco has announced it will showcase its Powerbond by Dayco Diesel Performance harmonic balancer product line during the Performance Racing Industry (PRI) annual trade show on Dec. 10-12, at the Indiana Convention Center in Indianapolis.
Designed as a high-performance alternative for diesel-powered passenger trucks, Powerbond by Dayco Diesel Performance harmonic balancers feature a strong billet steel ring and hub construction, ultra-reliable Powerbond Race Series pressure-bonded technology and are SFI-approved for race use. The Diesel Performance harmonic balancer line is available for popular Chevrolet, GMC, Dodge and Ford diesel engines.
“The diesel-fueled passenger truck market continues to increase, and along with that is the demand for high-quality replacement parts for those diesel engines,” said Doug Smith, regional sales manager for Dayco. “Similar to the traditional V8 market, high-performance rotating assembly parts are in high demand as engines are working harder to generate more horsepower. These race situations stress the engine components and create harmonics that are detrimental to the engine’s performance and can possibly cause premature failure. With a Powerbond by Dayco Diesel Performance balancer, we ensure customers their engines will perform at their best while improving durability.”
Dayco currently offers 13 part numbers in its Diesel Performance line covering nearly 6 million vehicles in operation (VIO). The Powerbond by Dayco harmonic balancer product line also includes premium OE replacement, race series, street performance, race performance, supercharger, underdrive and overdrive harmonic balancers. All Powerbond by Dayco harmonic balancers utilize advanced, pressure-bonded dampening technology for increased rubber strength and durability, the company says. In total, the 491 available part numbers in the line cover 226 million VIO in North America.
“Increasing demand for new, long-lasting harmonic balancers in the worldwide automotive market has allowed Dayco to invest in tooling to produce an extensive range of new products marketed under the Powerbond brand,” said Robert Christy, director of marketing for Dayco. “For example, our Powerbond by Dayco Premium OE Replacement balancers are designed with pressure-bonded rubber, which produces rubber strength that is stronger than competitive balancers.”
