Bearing Manufacturing – ZQDrive
To ensure higher precision and long-term stability for idler pulleys, ZQDrive adopts deep groove ball bearings made from bearing steel. We select trusted brands such as C&U, guaranteeing excellent concentricity and dynamic balance. Even under prolonged exposure to high temperatures inside the engine bay, the bearings run smoothly within a temperature range of -40°C to +150°C.
Each idler pulley bearing is equipped with a dual-seal design (rubber seal ring + metal dust cover) to prevent dust and moisture intrusion, extend lubrication life, and ensure reliable, maintenance-free performance.
