A pulley assembly in which either a hub or a bearing is attached in the center of one or more pulleys either by rivets passing transversely through overlapping portions of the pulley and the hub or bearing. When fastening together a hub and a pulley, the pulley has belt groove around the outer periphery and an annual web extending radially inwardly from the belt groove. A hub has a radially outwardly extending flange which overlaps the web of the pulley and in one embodiment a plurality of rivets pass through matching holes in the pulley web and the hub flange to fasten the hub and pulley together instead of using rivets, the pulley web and hub may be fastened together either with an adhesive layer or by friction welding of adjacent surfaces of the pulley web and the hub flange. When attaching bearings to a pulley an annular flange extends radially outwardly from the outer race of the bearing and overlaps a radially inwardly extending web of a pulley. The pulley and bearing can be fastened together either by rivets passing transversely through the pulley web and bearing flange or by applying a layer of adhesive between adjacent surfaces of the pulley web and bearing flange.
