Idler Wheel for Gates CB-77

Hey Guys!

I just purchased a Gates CB-77 that I just got working now but from improper stoarge the idler wheel got bent and is dried out.

Turntable Basics can rebuild any wheel but a 4 week turnaround time is way too long for me.

Does anyone here have a spare or can rebuild one if I send it to them?

Thanks!

Thanks Mark!

I emailed him since it's Solid rubber wheel with a brass bushing.

A week turnaround is much better!

This turntable will be used for my home brew lathe.

Actually i got the idea to use a rim driven turntable from seeing your build. So thanks again!

Cool, looks like Terry will be receiving a rubber idler from me.

Thanks again Mark!
