A chain tensioner is not a substitute for properly tightened axle nuts; it should properly be called a chain tension adjuster. Once the axle nuts are tightened properly, the chain tensioner will not carry any load. It will prevent pulling the axle forward, but this is meant to be a safety feature in the event of insufficiently tightened axle nuts, and not a normal function.
