A belt tensioner for a power transmission belt system includes: (a) a base housing having a pivot shaft extending therefrom; (b) a tension arm pivotally mounted on the pivot shaft at a proximal end thereof, the proximal end of the tension arm including a rub surface and the distal end of the tension arm adapted to contact a power transmission belt; (c) a torsion spring operatively coupled between the base housing and the tension arm and adapted to bias the distal end of the tension arm against the power transmission belt; and (d) a damper assembly coupled to the housing, the damper assembly including: (1) a body of friction material that includes a friction surface adjacent to and facing the rub surface of the tension arm and (2) a damper spring integral with the body of friction material and biasing the body of friction material and associated friction surface against the rub surface of the tension arm.
