V-Belt Idler Single Row Bearing

They are used in heavy duty applications where loads and speeds are greater than required for unground bearings-usually over 2000 RPM. Many are used on modern combines and hay baling equipment. Aetna V-belt idlers are available with single row bearings with a bore size to clear 1/2″ and 5/8″ bolts. Aetna belt idlers are generally used as tensioners or direction changers. Permanently lubricated and sealed against grime and dirt. Fit into existing design with little or no engineering changes or are readily adapted to new designs.
