TRC-920 idler tyre

[dubout]

I recently found a Lasonic TRC-920 in very poor condition but I have hope to get it running again. My biggest problem right now is the idler tyre. The plastic wheel is still there but the rubber is gone. This seems to be a common problem as someone else on here mentioned a few years ago that he had the same problem. But there was no solution given in that thread.

Does anyone know the measures of this rubber tyre? That would be of great help!

I was lucky and found a small piece of the broken idler tyre inside the machine. I have now gotten my replacement and can confirm these specs:
Outer diameter 16 mm
Inner diameter 10 mm
2 mm thick

It's up and running again!

Hey dub, any chance you could point me to where you purchased the replacement tyre?

Well, the replacement didn't really fit but it helped me to confirm the specs and post them here

So, what did you end up using if the replacement didn't fit?

It worked for a whie and then didn't

Were the dimensions you listed above too small or too big?

To finally clear this up: The dimensions are accurate, you can use those. I made an error when ordering the replacement.

Ahhh gotcha. Any tips on how to get the tire off? Does the entire tire, including the white plastic spindle thing it’s on, just pull off? Or is there a trick to it?
