What are Flangeless Idler Pulleys Used For?
Sometimes called drum pulleys or crowned pulleys, thermoplastic flangeless idler pulleys are commonly used with conveyor belts and vacuum systems. Flangeless idlers are often used to support sections of conveyor belts and can accommodate wider belts. Flangeless idler pulleys can be made of either steel or plastic, and at Retlaw Industries we manufacture high-quality idler pulleys made with the best thermoplastic materials.
