Dryer Drive Belt
This multi-ribbed belt is the primary mechanical link between the drive motor and the drum. Over time, the rubber compounds degrade from heat and tension, leading to snapping or slipping. When the belt breaks, the drum loses all rotational torque, though the motor may still be heard running.

Dryer Idler Pulley
The idler pulley maintains the necessary tension on the drive belt; if its internal bearing seizes or the plastic wheel melts, it creates immense friction. This friction typically burns through the belt or triggers the belt-break safety switch, which cuts power to the motor to prevent a fire hazard.

Drum Support Roller Kit
These rollers support the weight of the drum as it rotates. If the rollers seize due to hair/lint ingress or loss of lubrication, the resulting mechanical resistance can exceed the motor's torque capacity or cause the belt to snap under the increased load.
