A tensioner device having a tensioner and a lever urged by the tensioner into slide contact with a chain includes a plunger rotation inhibiting mechanism disposed between the front end portion of a plunger and a portion of the lever to inhibit the plunger from rotating about the axis thereof such that the front edge of each prong of a ratchet is kept separated from the bottom land of a mating one of rack teeth formed on an outer surface of the plunger along the axis thereof. The ratchet prong is substantially free from wear and has an improved degree of durability.
