With a 0.625-inch inside (bore) diameter and a 2.87-inch outside diameter, this sheave provides adjustable speed ratios without requiring a belt change. The variable pitch design lets technicians fine-tune driven equipment speed by shifting the belt's running position within the groove. It is installed by HVAC mechanics, millwrights, and mechanical contractors on fan and blower assemblies where precise airflow or speed adjustment is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis sheave is suited for light-duty to medium-duty belt-drive applications using 3L-section V-belts. Typical installations include residential and light commercial HVAC blower sections, exhaust fans, and small motor-driven equipment where variable speed adjustment is performed during commissioning or seasonal balancing. The sheave thickness of 1-11\/16 inches and a face width range of 17\/32 to 25\/32 inches accommodate standard 3L belt widths across common motor and blower shaft configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable pitch groove allows speed adjustment without replacing the belt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-groove design for straightforward single-belt drive configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with 3L-section V-belts with a minimum pitch diameter of 1.8 inches and maximum pitch diameter of 2.7 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.625-inch bore fits common motor and blower shaft sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSheave thickness of 1-11\/16 inches and face width of 17\/32 to 25\/32 inches for proper belt alignment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 3L-section V-belts.

De-energize and lock out the motor before removing or installing any sheave. Ensure the bore fits the shaft snugly and that the sheave is aligned with the mating sheave using a straightedge before tensioning the belt. Adjust the variable pitch setting before final tightening to achieve the desired output speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInside Diameter (Bore)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.87 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Grooves\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Section\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Pitch Diameter (3L)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Pitch Diameter (3L)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.7 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSheave Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-11\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFace Width Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17\/32 to 25\/32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.05 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 26111800\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: BROWNING\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1045244\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BROWNING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51543412179250,"sku":"1045244","price":95.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/04d57b81b62765369f688a278aa50c33_4db322de-f601-4ee2-8cbb-9a23e69ea4e5.jpg?v=1785918254","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/browning-1045244-variable-pitched-sheave-1-groove-3l","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
