This HQPASFY replacement matches OEM part numbers 756-05032, 75605032, 956-05032 and PY173A1002 and is designed specifically as a flat idler (not a V-groove type). Built from corrosion-resistant metal, it restores proper belt alignment and reduces belt fatigue so decks run cleaner and more reliably.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this flat idler pulley differ from a V-idler pulley?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HQPASFY 756-05032 features a shallow, flat belt contact surface rather than a deep V groove.
