Purpose and Function of the Seat Belt Buckle

The buckle presented is a component of the passenger restraint system on the rear seat, mounted in the center position. It is responsible for the mechanical fastening of the seat belt, ensuring a stable connection with the belt webbing and proper cooperation with the vehicle's factory safety system.

Its rear placement on the vehicle allows for:

• Ensuring correct belt mounting in accordance with factory anchor points.
• Maintaining compatibility with the original body structure and seating system.

• It fits original mountings in the rear seat's center tunnel.
• It works with the standard seat belts used in the Ford Focus Mk3.
• It does not require structural modifications or adapter brackets.

This solution is beneficial for both workshops and individual users who expect predictable installation and adherence to factory safety standards.

Performance Characteristics and Installation

As a part installed at the rear, in the center of the bench, the buckle is designed to operate under typical interior vehicle conditions. Its construction ensures:

• Stable guidance of the belt latch during fastening and unfastening.
• Appropriate mounting rigidity at the body's anchor point.
• Cooperation with the standard seat geometry, without interfering with upholstery or tunnel plastics.

In most cases, installing the buckle involves removing a section of the rear seat upholstery, unscrewing the old part, and screwing in the new one in the same location, ensuring the correct torque is applied according to the vehicle manufacturer's service documentation.

Product Condition and Practical Application

The offered seat belt buckle is a used part, allowing for an economical repair of the safety system while maintaining the original manufacturer's specifications. This type of part is suitable for situations where:

• Mechanical damage to the buckle has occurred due to intensive use or a collision.
