Description

When your belt starts slipping or making noise, chances are it’s time to look at your idler pulleys. This 8.75-inch flat idler pulley keeps your belts running smooth and tight, whether you’re dealing with a mower deck that’s not cutting evenly or equipment that’s just not performing like it should. A worn pulley can throw off your whole belt system, so getting a good replacement makes all the difference.

What You’re Getting

Zinc plated finish that resists rust and corrosion through years of outdoor use
Riveted construction for strength and durability – no spot welding that can fail
Accurately bore sized for easy, quick mounting on standard 1/2″ or 5/8″ bolts
Removable sleeve system lets you adapt to different bolt sizes without buying multiple pulleys

Built for Real Farm Work

This heavy-duty pulley is sized right for larger agricultural equipment and commercial mowing operations. At 8.75 inches, it’s commonly found on mid-mount and rear-mount mower decks, finish mowers, and other implements where you need reliable belt routing. The flat profile works with flat belts that transfer power smoothly without the grabbing you get with V-belt systems.

Made to Last

The riveted design means this pulley won’t come apart under load like cheaper spot-welded versions can. The zinc plating stands up to moisture, grass stains, and the general abuse that comes with field work. You’ll get smooth rotation and consistent belt tracking season after season.

Good to Know

Installation is straightforward with the pre-sized bore and removable sleeves. The standard 1/2-inch sleeve works for most applications, but 3/8-inch sleeves are available if you need them. Check your belt alignment after installation – a properly positioned idler pulley should keep your belt tracking straight without any side-to-side movement.
