Purpose and Fitment
The presented seat belt has been designed specifically for Mercedes W246 models, taking into account the body geometry and factory mounting points. Its placement on the vehicle is front left side, meaning it is installed in the driver's position in left-hand drive versions. This allows the component to work with factory pretensioners, buckles, and seat mounts, maintaining the correct webbing path.
The black color of the belt allows for an aesthetic integration into most standard Mercedes W246 interior configurations, without the need for modifications to other upholstery or plastic elements.
Construction and Performance Parameters
The seat belt in this offer belongs to the seat belts and parts group, meaning it meets the requirements for durability and compatibility with the vehicle's passive safety systems. The webbing used has the appropriate width and fiber structure to ensure controlled stretching under load, while simultaneously providing stable support for the driver's posture in the seat.
The retractor mechanism is adapted for operation in the mounting position on the front left pillar, which affects:
- correct webbing angle relative to the driver's shoulder,
- smooth retraction and extension of the belt during seat adjustment and body movements,
- stable lock operation during sudden braking or impact.
Benefits of Using an Original Mercedes Seat Belt
Using an original seat belt in a Mercedes W246 translates into a number of practical advantages in daily use:
- Factory Fitment – the correct webbing length, mounting geometry, and retractor operating angle minimize the risk of improper belt positioning on the chest and hips.
- Compatibility with Safety Systems – the belt works with factory safety system components, promoting predictable vehicle behavior during a collision.
- Interior Aesthetics – the black color helps maintain a uniform cabin appearance, without the contrasts typical of non-original parts.
- User Comfort – the appropriate stiffness and flexibility of the webbing reduce the feeling of pressure while maintaining a stable driver position.
Item Condition and Service Application
The offered seat belt is a used item, making it an attractive solution for users looking for an economical repair of the safety system while retaining OEM-class components. This type of part is suitable for replacement after a system deployment, as well as when a worn or damaged driver's side belt needs to be replaced.
For installation, it is recommended that the work be carried out by a workshop experienced with passive safety systems, following the vehicle manufacturer's procedures.
