V-Idler Pulley, 3-1/2"ODX3/8" Bore

V-Idler Pulley, 3-1/2"ODX3/8" Bore

The 280-297 V-Idler Pulley is a metal V-idler pulley designed as a direct replacement for several OEM part numbers used on lawn and garden equipment. With a 3-1/2" outside diameter and 3/8" bore, it helps keep belts tracking correctly and tensioned properly—because a slipping belt is just a productivity leak in disguise.
