About Head Drum Pulley

The major role of our Head Drum Pulley is to increase fiction for providing a protective layer to the conveyor belt. It is located at the discharge point for driving the conveyor and can also be lagged with rubber or ceramic materials. At the end of the conveyor belt that is opposite from the head drum is a tail drum, also referred to as a tail pulley. The Head Drum Pulley or drive pulley also known as the head drum is mechanically operated to generate conveyor belt movement.

Krishna Conveyor is a leading manufacturer of Head Drum Pulleys, engineered to deliver maximum power transmission, superior belt traction, and smooth conveyor operation. Installed at the drive end of belt conveyor systems, the head drum pulley plays a crucial role in moving the conveyor belt and handling heavy loads efficiently.

Manufactured using high-strength steel shells, precision-machined shafts, and advanced balancing techniques, Krishna Conveyor head drum pulleys ensure high durability, reduced vibration, and long service life. Available in plain and rubber-lagged designs, our head drum pulleys are suitable for light, medium, and heavy-duty industrial applications.
