Product Overview
A deck belt that jumps off after shutdown, rubs the guard, or will not stay aligned may have a bent or missing keeper. Pulley bearings, belt routing, deck damage, and tension should be checked before installation.
This formed idler belt keeper replaces 532198468 on compatible 54-inch Husqvarna-built mower decks. Match the deck model or product number, mounting bend, hole location, and the parts diagram—not only the tractor hood badge.

Compatibility Notice
Northline Parts does its best to list all known compatible models, but the correct part may fit an application not shown.
Model, production date, serial number, dimensions, electrical or mounting configuration, installed options, and previous repairs can affect fitment. Compare the removed part and equipment information before purchase.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will a new keeper stop every belt from coming off? A: No. An incorrect belt, worn idler, weak tension spring, bent deck, or routing error can still derail the belt.
Q: Is tractor model enough to confirm fit? A: The mower-deck product number is often the better identifier because one tractor can be sold with different decks.
Q: How do I confirm fitment before ordering? A: Match the original reference number, equipment model and serial number, dimensions, connector or mounting details, and the product photos. Do not rely on appearance alone.
Q: Is this made by the original equipment manufacturer? A: No. This is a new aftermarket part. Brand names and model numbers are used only to identify compatible equipment.
