Overview:
The Idler Pulley for Stihl rider mowers is a Genuine Stihl part designed to keep the drive belt correctly tensioned for smooth, reliable power transmission.

It is a direct-fit component for routine servicing or repairs on Stihl ride-on mowers used by homeowners, grounds teams, and professional landscapers.
