Timing Belt Idler Pulleys
Add these free-spinning pulleys to your timing belt setup to minimize vibration and keep belts from wearing out. The needle bearing at the center of these pulleys is lined with small, cylindrical rollers that reduce friction as they rotate. This bearing allows both the pulley and the shaft it’s mounted on to spin independently. Made from iron or steel, these pulleys are strong and wear-resistant. The black oxide coating protects the pulleys from corrosion in dry environments.
Curved teeth have more surface contact with belts than traditional trapezoidal teeth, which allows you to apply more torque without damaging belts. These teeth fit together seamlessly to prevent backlash, or unwanted movement of the belt on the pulley, for a smooth, quiet cycle. They are also known as curvilinear belt pulleys.

High-Strength HTD Timing Belt Pulleys
These HTD (high torque drive) pulleys have a curved tooth shape that provides higher strength than trapezoidal teeth. Select a pulley with a maximum belt width that’s the same or larger than your timing belt width.
Bushing-mount pulleys grip the shaft more securely than pulleys that press fit. Quick-disconnect (QD) bushings and split-tapered bushings sold separately.

High-Strength GT Timing Belt Pulleys
For higher speed or higher torque applications, these GT series timing belt pulleys provide a more precise fit than HTD pulleys. Use them where accuracy is critical, such as in storage and retrieval systems or in robotics. Similar to HTD timing belt pulleys, their teeth are curved for high strength. The curved teeth create positive grip engagement with timing belts, so these pulleys do not require re-tensioning—unlike drives using V-belts or sheaves. And unlike chain drives, there’s no metal-on-metal contact, so these pulleys don’t require lubrication.

Ultra-High-Strength Poly Chain Timing Belt Pulleys
Curved teeth with a high pitch provide superior load distribution and reduce wear. They mount with a bushing for a more secure grip on the shaft than set screws. Bushing is not included. Select a pulley with a maximum belt width that’s the same or larger than your timing belt width.
