Browning 1002815 Qd Bushed V Belt Sheave 2 Groove

Product Description

The BROWNING 1002815 is a two-groove, Quick Detachable (QD) bushed V belt sheave designed for power transmission applications in HVAC, industrial, and mechanical systems. It accepts a Q1-style QD bushing and accommodates bore diameters from 0.75 inches up to 2.6875 inches, making it adaptable to a range of shaft sizes without requiring a dedicated bore per install. The sheave has a 15.75-inch outside diameter and supports 5V, A, and B belt trade sizes, with a Belt Pitch A Diameter of 15.0 inches and a Belt Pitch B Diameter of 15.4 inches. Cast iron construction provides durability under continuous belt load. It weighs 28.25 pounds.

This sheave is used in belt-driven systems where two V belt grooves are required, such as air handling unit fans, blower drives, cooling tower fans, and pump drives in both commercial and light industrial settings. The QD bushing system allows for quick shaft installation and removal without specialized tooling, which reduces labor time during planned maintenance or drive system upgrades. Installers working with matched belt sets on multi-groove drives will find the dual-groove configuration well suited to balanced load distribution across both belts.

Compatibility

Designed for use with Q1-style QD bushings and 5V, A, or B trade size V belts. Suitable as a replacement or new-install sheave in belt-driven blower, fan, and pump drive assemblies where a two-groove, large-diameter sheave is required.

Installation Notes

Installation and removal should be performed by a qualified mechanical or HVAC technician. Disconnect and lock out all power to the drive system before working on the sheave or belts. Ensure the QD bushing bore matches the shaft diameter before assembly, and follow the bushing manufacturer torque sequence for the bushing cap screws. Verify belt tension and sheave alignment with a straightedge or laser alignment tool after installation to prevent premature belt and bearing wear.
