Our pulleys have individual all-steel wings and gussets that expel excessive build up of material from the areas of belt contact which enhances traction and reduces abrasion of both belt and pulley. We have pulley lagging capabilities available in a wide variety of styles and thicknesses. Lagging is primarily used to improve traction capacity, resist abrasive conditions, and extend the pulley and belt life. The style of lagging is usually influenced by operating conditions. The standard is 60 durometer and is available in various durometers, with 45 and 70 being the common alternates. The herringbone groove lagging is the most common. In this tractor style grooving, the points do not meet in the middle, this is normally used in drive pulleys. (3/8” minimum thickness).
We stock a wide variety of Head (drive) pulley shafts and tail (idler) pulley shafts machined and ready for same day shipping ,however if we do not have your size in stock we can machine a shaft to your specifications(call for lead time).
Our standard grade shafting is 1018 Cold Finished ,many other grades are available.
Note: Any size head or wing pulley shafts avaliable. Shafts are TGP (turned ground polished) for precise bearing fit other grade shaft available.
