Round Belt Idlers Engineered for Performance

Our thermoplastic pulleys are designed to outperform and outlast traditional metal components in demanding applications.

  • Smooth, Jam-Free Operation: The deep, perfectly radiused groove provides continuous support for the belt, eliminating the binding and wedging problems common with inferior pulleys.
  • Unmatched Durability: Our single-piece plastic construction is stronger than two-piece metal designs and is completely immune to rust and corrosion.
  • Quiet, Low-Friction Performance: The natural lubricity of our plastics creates a smoother, quieter pull, reducing system wear and extending the life of your belts.
  • Idler & Drive Pulley Versatility: Our pulleys function perfectly as free-spinning round belt idler pulleys and can be instantly converted into round belt drive pulleys using our range of drive adapters.
