Start with the application branch
Confirm engine code, production date and whether the quotation covers the cam chain only, the oil-pump chain, guides, tensioner, sprockets, seals and one-time fasteners.
Chain length or an overall kit photograph cannot reconcile tooth count, guide geometry and tensioner design. Keep every engine family and kit boundary on its own SKU line.
Identification checkpoints before price comparison
For timing chain kits, record 2.0l or 1.5t engine branch, verify cam-chain or oil-pump-chain circuit, and photograph chain link and sprocket tooth counts on both the installed and removed component.
Scoped OE reference
| Reference | Catalogue scope used for identification |
|---|---|
| 14401-6A0-A01 | Selected 2022 Civic 1.5T sedan/hatchback, Si and Touring 6MT/CVT cam-chain starting branch; not evidence for the 2.0L chain or a complete kit. |
Reference 14401-6A0-A01 is retained only as a timing chain kits identification lead; the submitted vehicle, installed component and any later supersession must remain within its stated catalogue boundary.
Common order boundaries
Build a comparable B2B order line
Provide engine code, production month, old chain or sprocket marks, requested kit boundary and quantity; do not compare a chain-only quote with a full service set.
Quote cam chain only separately from chain with guides and tensioner, documenting trial and repeat quantity, destination, Incoterm, label requirements and included hardware for that SKU.
Export packing checkpoint
Keep the chain lightly protected against corrosion, separate sprocket teeth with dividers, support long guides and bag small tensioner hardware by SKU.
Common buyer questions
How does 2.0l or 1.5t engine branch change the Civic timing chain kit order?
Confirm engine code, production date and whether the quotation covers the cam chain only, the oil-pump chain, guides, tensioner, sprockets, seals and one-time fasteners. Record 2.0l or 1.5t engine branch, cam-chain or oil-pump-chain circuit and the installed part evidence before treating candidates as comparable.
Which views document chain link and sprocket tooth counts for Timing Chain Kits?
Photograph the installed location, the complete removed timing chain kit, chain link and sprocket tooth counts, every connector or fluid interface and the mounting points. Add a ruler view with named endpoints where dimensions are relevant.
What boundary applies to reference 14401-6A0-A01?
For timing chain kits, 14401-6A0-A01 remains an identification lead only within this boundary: Selected 2022 Civic 1.5T sedan/hatchback, Si and Touring 6MT/CVT cam-chain starting branch; not evidence for the 2.0L chain or a complete kit. Confirm the installed component and any later catalogue supersession before quotation.
How should cam chain only be separated for trade packing?
Provide engine code, production month, old chain or sprocket marks, requested kit boundary and quantity; do not compare a chain-only quote with a full service set. Apply this packing control: Keep the chain lightly protected against corrosion, separate sprocket teeth with dividers, support long guides and bag small tensioner hardware by SKU. Quote cam chain only as its own SKU with trial and repeat quantity, destination and buyer-label requirements.
