Gates CHK142 Engine Timing Chain Kit

Overview

The Gates CHK142 timing chain component kit is built for interference-engine applications that require precise valve timing and durable chain-drive components. It is a fitment-based replacement for select Nissan Versa and Nissan Versa Note models, with OE-level function, fit, and performance in mind.

Key Features

• Steel timing chain construction with a silent chain design for controlled operation.
• Includes chain guides, tensioner, and drive sprocket components for a complete timing drive service.
• Camshaft sprocket material is steel for added durability in the valve train.
• Designed around OE standards for timing drive system service.
• Fits 2015-2019 Nissan Versa and 2015-2019 Nissan Versa Note, N/A.

Detailed Description

Gates CHK142 is part of the Timing Chain Component Kits line, a product family focused on timing drive service parts for engine valve train repair. Gates applies its timing drive system experience to components that meet or exceed OE standards in function, fit, and performance. This kit uses steel chain construction, a silent chain profile, and steel sprocket materials to support accurate timing control in the engine.

For fitment-specific searches, this kit is listed for 2015-2019 Nissan Versa and 2015-2019 Nissan Versa Note, N/A. The CHK142 part number is also referenced by buyers looking for a direct timing chain service solution for these applications. This part cross-references Cloyes 9-4219SA for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Excessive timing chain noise from worn chain-drive components.
• Timing drift caused by stretched chains or worn guides.
• Valve timing inconsistency in interference-engine service.
• Wear in tensioning and sprocket components within the timing drive.
• Incomplete timing service when multiple chain-drive parts need replacement together.

Installation Notes

Install on the listed Nissan Versa and Nissan Versa Note applications only. Verify engine code, timing marks, and component alignment before reassembly. Because this is an interference-engine application, correct timing setup is critical during service. The CHK142 should be matched to the vehicle’s exact engine configuration before installation.

Quality Assurance

Gates is a global leader in timing drive systems for original equipment and replacement markets. The CHK142 timing chain component kit is engineered to meet or exceed OE standards in function, fit, and performance.
