Gates Corporation is pleased to announce it has settled its
litigation against Dorman Products, Inc. concerning marketing
statements by Dorman directed to its automatic belt tensioners. By
Order dated May 24, 2010 from the federal United States District
Court of Colorado, Dorman, its officers, agents, and employees
acting at the direction of Dorman to advertise, sell or distribute
automatic belt tensioners have been permanently enjoined from using
the following phrases, individually or in combination, or any
reasonably colorable variation of them in advertising, sales
promotion or distribution of automatic belt tensioners, namely,
“All SAE Specifications,” “OE Solutions,” “OE Quality” and “OE
Performance.”

belt systems supplier, Gates is aware of the effects of tensioner
quality. OE quality tensioners maximize life and performance of
every component in the accessory belt drive system.”
