When the band in an A130, A240, or A540 automatic transmission wears past its service limit, no amount of adjustment recovers the holding capacity the apply circuit needs, and the only correct fix is a relined band that meets the stock geometry. This listing is for a single relined rigid wide band sized for the early configuration used in A130, A240, A540, A541E, and A540H units from 1988 onward, a specific dimensional specification that does not interchange with the narrow version or with later production bands in related families.
The rigid construction keeps the band from flexing under servo pressure, which allows the lining to seat evenly against the drum and maintain consistent contact area throughout the apply stroke. Uneven contact is one of the reasons rebuilt transmissions come back with band-related complaints shortly after installation, and it is usually traced to a band that was either the wrong width or too flexible for the drum diameter in question.
REMCO has worked in automatic transmission parts since 1991. Each piece that leaves the warehouse is pulled individually and checked against its part record before it ships, and the paperwork inside the package reflects exactly what is in the box.
This article contains one part: the relined rigid wide band itself. There are no friction clutch discs, no steel plates, no Automatic Transmission Filter, no gaskets, and no seals in this shipment. If your rebuild requires any of those components, they need to be sourced separately. The article ships at 1 lb.
Before placing your order, locate the transmission code on the unit itself and confirm it is one of the following: A130, A240, A540, A541E, or A540H. Also verify that the unit takes the early wide band specification, since some production runs within this family use a different band. Getting that detail right before ordering saves time on both ends.
- A relined rigid wide band restores holding force in the apply circuit, addressing the slippage and delayed engagement that worn band material causes over time.
- This listing covers one band only. No friction discs, steel plates, Automatic Transmission Filter, gaskets, or seals are included. Verify your full rebuild needs before ordering to avoid a second purchase.
- The wide rigid design maintains consistent contact across the drum surface, which matters in units where band geometry affects shift timing and holding capacity under load.
- Contents: 1 relined rigid wide band. Article weight: 1 lb. Compatible with A130, A240, A540, A541E, and A540H automatic transmission units built from 1988 onward.
- Before ordering, confirm the transmission code stamped on your unit matches A130, A240, A540, A541E, or A540H, and verify whether your application takes the early wide band specification.
