Every 507C Sonic Tension Meter comes permanently calibrated from the factory! The 507C Sonic Tension Meter is a frequency sensing device and after selling them for years we have not had one get out of calibration! We test all Sonic Tension Meters being packed for shipment using Chromatic Frequency Tuning software. With the Chromatic Frequency Tuning software set at and generating 440.0 Hz the Sonic Tension Meters register exactly the same frequency 440.0 Hz! Please see the examples in the photographs below.

We have had several customers ask how they can test their 507C Sonic Tension Meters in house? And, What kind of testing device are we using - which is shown on our website? You can easily check the Calibration yourself, in house, as we do on all 507C Sonic Tension Meters that we sell!

We check the Calibration using downloadable "Guitar Tuner" software on an iPhone! If you have access to an iPhone, iPad or, a 2nd or 3rd generation iPod Touch with an external mic connected to the iPod Touch - just download the Cleartune - Chromatic Tuner application for $3.99 US from the App Store on the iPhone. We set the Cleartune software at 440.0 Hz when we test the Sonic Meters, or any optional sensors and we have never found any out of calibration.

You can use any frequency you want (and we have) as the Sonic Meter shows how accurate it is at all the frequencies but, we settled on 440.0 Hz for all units being shipped. Note: you can use any tuner that displays the frequency it is generating!

Please see the complete technical explanation of the Sonic Tension Meter Accuracy below and thanks for using the Gates 507C Sonic Tension Meters.

EZ Align® Precision Belt Drive

Laser Alignment Tool


EZ Align Precision Laser pulley alignment system - Call 704-233-9222

The EZ Align® Precision Laser pulley alignment system is lightweight, compact and durable. The unit magnetically attaches to the inside or outside face of any pulley or sprocket and has no small parts or targets that can get lost. We use our proven reflected laser beam technology for maximum angular resolution, thus providing you with the most reliable and accurate readings that no other method or tool can match.

The features of the EZ Align® Precision Laser are as follows:

  • Reduces vibration and belt noise
  • Prolongs belt and pulley life
  • Reduces down time and energy costs
  • Fast and easy
  • Shows angular, parallel, and offset simultaneously
  • No training required
  • One-person operation
  • More accurate and efficient than any other tool or conventional method
  • Uses proven reflected laser beam technology
  • Used for shots up to 6 ft. or better

The EZ Align® Precision Laser pulley alignment system can measure spans up to 6 ft. or better with any size pulley, large or small. A laser line is projected from the EZ Align® transmitter to the reflector mounted on the opposite pulley. A reference line on the reflector indicates offset and vertical angle misalignment immediately. The laser line is then automatically reflected back to the transmitter’s reference line to show horizontal angle misalignment. This ensures all major aspects of pulley misalignment are resolved. This tool is so easy to use, a single operator can perform the alignment task in minutes with no training!

7420-1000 EZ Align® Precision Laser Belt Drive Alignment Tool with Class II Laser including Laser Reflector, manual & hard carrying case . . . . $960.00 US FOB Wingate, North Carolina.

Important Note: Under no circumstances, will we sell or ship EZ Align Laser pulley alignment tools outside of the United States of America! Please contact Gates Corporation for a Distributor in your country!
