Description
Overview:
The Tension Bolt - Robin Part - RB243 16002 01 is a replacement fastening component used to set and hold precise tension in assemblies on construction and garden machinery. Manufactured from durable steel with a corrosion-resistant finish, it provides a secure clamp and consistent preload under vibration and heavy use. It is commonly found on small plant and outdoor power equipment powered by Robin/Subaru engines, such as plate compactors, generators, pumps, and cultivators. Designed as a direct like-for-like part, it helps restore correct adjustment, reliability, and safety when original hardware is worn, stretched, or missing. Its straightforward form factor allows quick fitting with standard hand tools, helping to keep maintenance time low and equipment performance stable.
Key Features:
- Durable steel construction with a corrosion-resistant finish for long life in harsh environments
- Accurate thread and head form for secure seating and repeatable torque
- Maintains set tension to resist loosening under vibration
- Direct-fit replacement for RB243 16002 01
- Straightforward installation with standard spanners or sockets; minimal downtime
- Suitable for a wide range of Robin/Subaru engine-driven tools and attachments
- Supports precise setting in belt drives, guards, brackets, and linkages
- Reliable under high load and temperature cycles typical of site and garden use
Typical Applications:
Used wherever controlled clamp force or fine positioning is required on Robin-powered equipment: belt tensioning on small drive systems, fixing recoil starter housings and covers, securing engine brackets, guards, and control linkages. Common in plate compactors, portable generators, water pumps, cultivators, and other light plant that operate in high-vibration conditions and need stable adjustments to maintain safe and efficient performance.
Also known as:
Often referred to as a tension fastener, tensioner bolt, tensioning screw, locking bolt, clamp screw, or retaining bolt. Some users may describe it as a set screw for brackets or a positioning bolt used to hold and lock component alignment within small-engine assemblies.
