Product Details

Gates PowerGrip Premium OE Timing Belt Component Kit W/Water Pump TCKWP343A is engineered for timing belt-driven water pump service where replacing all critical components at the same time helps complete the repair. The kit includes the belt, spring tensioner, water pump with plastic impeller, metal gasket, and bolt, along with installation instructions. The belt uses HSN and fiberglass cord construction with 117 teeth and a 22 mm width for OE-style fitment and operation.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 24550K, BWPK42051) for the same application. It is a practical choice for Ford Fiesta, Ford Escape, Ford Transit Connect, and Ford Fusion timing belt service when the water pump is part of the maintenance interval.

What It Helps Address

• Timing belt wear, cracking, or age-related deterioration
• Water pump leakage or pump replacement during timing service
• Tensioner wear, noise, or loss of belt control
• Cooling system service tied to timing belt replacement
• Interference-engine maintenance where timing system condition is critical
