Jockey & Tension Pulley Range
The jockey and tension pulley range covers the pulley and bracket configurations that keep drive tapes at constant tension across textile machinery belt systems. Tape tension is spindle speed: a worn pulley lets tension wander, and spindle speeds wander with it. Vindex Industries manufactures these pulleys since 1985 at Surendranagar, Gujarat, exporting them to textile mills in 87 countries in bulk order quantities.
Pulleys are built for high-speed tape drives and correct alignment. View the product specifications on this page for configurations and details.
Tape dust near the drive or audible flutter at speed are the classic signs of a failing jockey pulley — replacing pulleys before the tape wears saves both the tape and the spindles it drives.
