Plastic Pulleys
Quick Links
Using a plastic pulley instead of its steel counterpart has several added benefits when it comes to weight, noise reduction, and resistance to corrosion. Many of the plastic pulleys we supply are also FDA and USDA approved for use within the food production industry.
We supply plastic timing belt pulleys, plastic round belt pulleys, plastic v-belt sheaves, and application-specific plastic pulleys. Have a pulley question? Talk to the plastic pulley experts now.
Plastic V-Belt Pulleys
Plastic pulleys for v-belts are commonly found in abrasive and weight-saving applications, they are also commonly referred to as plastic v-belt sheaves. We supply these pulleys with a standard stock round bore, as a finished bore with key-way and set screws, and as an idler configuration with a bearing. Our plastic v-belt pulleys are made from a high-quality UHMW for the greatest transfer of power and extended working life. Custom v-belt pulleys can be supplied as well upon request.

Plastic Ball Bearing Pulleys
Our plastic ball bearing pulleys are also commonly referred to as plastic gravity pulleys and are designed to be low friction, quiet running, and resistant to corrosion. They are considered a maintenance-free part and require no lubrication, the balls are typically carbon steel or 420-grade stainless steel. Common applications include rope guide, cable guide, overhead conveyors, and exercise equipment. The below chart shows the standard sizes available for plastic ball bearing pulleys, custom sizes and configurations can be manufactured upon request.
