Selling IWIS timing chains has always been easy for me, since there really was nothing else to be sold. IWIS is the OE supplier to every European car built that uses timing chains. I have never seen a new IWIS chain fail. I have seen old OE IWIS chains that should have been changed earlier fail, but everything has its limits.
If there were any other product available when choosing a timing chain, there would be no choice in my book other than the IWIS chain, regardless of cost!
Company:
IWIS, a German based company, got its start in 1916 by producing chains for two-wheeled vehicles. IWIS became a supplier to BMW in 1939 when they introduced timing chains into their range of products. Since then, IWIS has expanded their expertise beyond production and currently plays a critical role in the development of engines, collaborating with leading car manufacturers.
IWIS’s ninety years of research, development and production has thrust them to the forefront as one of the world’s most reliable and reputable names in timing and drive systems components.
