This may or may not have anything to do with
Atlas/Craftsman, but might give you an idea if you run
into a similar problem. I have a Delta 1" belt sander that
uses plastic wheels. Some of the wheels are covered with a
rubber tire. Anyway, the price for replacement wheels are
pretty salty -like 10x more than I paid for the machine.
I have a lawn tractor that needed an idler pulley.? The
originals were stamped steel with an integral ball race.? I
found plastic idler pulleys at McMaster-Carr for $18.? These
had flanges, but I turned the flanges off on my lathe, and
they worked fine.? Looked similar to the pic you sent.
