Flat Idler Pulley, 5-1/4"X3/8"

Flat Idler Pulley, 5-1/4"X3/8"

The 280-802 Flat Idler Pulley (5-1/4" × 3/8") is a heavy-duty metal pulley designed for mower deck and belt-drive applications where reliable belt tracking and smooth rotation matter. Built by an OEM supplier and cross-referenced to Cub Cadet/MTD 756-3062, it’s a solid replacement option—because belts behave a lot better when the pulleys aren’t tired.
