It is engineered with a smooth backside contact surface, making it suitable for timing belt paths that ride on the back of the pulley rather than a toothed sprocket surface. The steel body and flanged end support consistent belt alignment in demanding engine applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompatible With 2001-2006 Hyundai Santa Fe, 2001-2006 Kia Magentis, 2001-2006 Kia Optima, and 1999-2005 Hyundai Sonata.
