Fundamental Components–Alternators

GM Application Chart

There are three major components in an automotive charging system – the battery, the voltage regulator, and the alternator.

Alternators are used in modern automobiles to maintain a fully charged battery and to aid in powering the electrical systems of your automobile from interior/exterior lights and dash lights to the radio, windshield wipers, and accessories.

A strong alternator’s biggest role is producing AC (alternating current) power and channeling the current into the battery which consequently provides voltage to run every electrical aspect of your car.

Tuff Stuff’s alternators are backed by a full one year warranty along with their other products. They are a family run business who have been working to bring car lovers improved and sleek components for more than 30 years.
