Riveting Guide for 4.5 mm Mercedes Simplex Timing Chains – for item no. 112444

This specialized guide is designed for riveting 4.5 mm simplex timing chains used in various Mercedes engines.

It ensures correct alignment of the rivet pins during the pressing process, allowing safe and precise chain riveting when using the corresponding timing chain riveting tool.

Technical Background

At the widest press-fit section, the rivet pins measure approximately 4.7 mm (+/- 0.05 mm).

Standard guides with a 4 mm opening are not suitable for these larger pins, as they cannot hold them in alignment and may cause the pin to be pushed out during the riveting process.

Solution and Advantages

This guide is specifically designed to accommodate 4.5 mm timing chain pins:

• Allows proper seating of larger rivet pins
• Ensures straight and controlled pressing
• Prevents deformation or misalignment
• Guarantees reliable and secure riveting

The pressing component included in the standard riveting tool (item no. 112444) is fully compatible and can be used with this guide.
