The seat belt pretensioner is one of the most important components of the entire seat belt mechanism. It works with the other parts including but not limited to the seat belt retractor, webbing, and pillar loop to render a fully functioning primary restraint system. On a side note, seat belts are considered primary restraint systems because of their crucial role in occupant safety. They work side by side with the airbags, which are known as the secondary\u2014or supplementary\u2014restraint systems.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Now let\u2019s get back to the seat belt pretensioner<\/a>. The pretensioner is known as the female portion of the seat belt and is often referred to simply as the \u201cbuckle\u201d. It is the area where the seat belt retractor actually plugs into so that the occupant can be well secured in his or her seat. The pretensioner is the component of the seat belt system that locks the seat belt in place when the vehicle collides with another car or object or comes to a sudden stop. When a collision occurs and the sensors detect that, the pretensioner uses a small explosive charge to introduce a concealed piston. The piston drives the spool rapidly around and removes any slack from the seat belt. Ultimately, it positions the occupants of the vehicle into their seats so they could get the maximum protection from their airbags and from being ejected out of the vehicle. After this occurs, the seat belt pretensioner will have a compressed or squished look upon inspection. Also, if a scanning tool were to be used on that vehicle after it has been involved in the crash, specific codes would be displayed\u2014indicating that the pretensioner needs to be repaired.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
