Retlaw Industries Produces Durable Plastics
As with all of our plastic products, we stand behind the quality and craftsmanship of our pulleys. Glass-reinforced nylon idler pulleys produced by Retlaw possess many advantages over standard steel pulleys:
- Runs Cooler – Thermoplastic idler pulleys have lower heat conductivity than steel or other metals, reducing wear over the long term.
- No Rivet Fatigue – Our pulleys are produced as one piece, eliminating the use of riveting which tends to become weak over time.
- Longer Belt Life – Due to a lower conductivity coefficient, less heat buildup gets transferred to the belt, giving it longer life.
- No Corrosion – Glass-reinforced nylon thermoplastic will not corrode the pulley in the way ferrous metals will.
