Cast from iron, it features a 0.5-inch bore and a 3.15-inch outside diameter. The variable pitch design allows technicians to adjust the effective pitch diameter within a set range, enabling fine-tuned speed and airflow control without swapping components. Compatible belt sections include 3L, 4L, 5L, A, and B. This sheave weighs 1.2 pounds and is a standard OEM-style component installed by HVAC mechanics and millwrights during fan and blower drive assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis sheave is used in residential and commercial air handling units, blower assemblies, and belt-driven fan systems where variable speed adjustment is required. The single-groove configuration suits single-belt drive setups. By turning the sheave faces to open or close, the installer changes the pitch diameter and adjusts the driven shaft speed. This is a common adjustment method during HVAC commissioning and air balancing work. Sheave thickness is 1.875 inches, and the face width ranges from 0.656 to 1 inch depending on belt position.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable pitch design allows on-site speed adjustment without replacing the sheave\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle groove accepts 3L, 4L, 5L, A, and B belt sections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCast iron construction for durability in continuous-duty drive applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.5-inch bore diameter with 3.15-inch outside diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePitch diameter range adjustable from 1.7 to 3.2 inches depending on belt type\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSheave thickness of 1.875 inches with face width from 0.656 to 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompatible with 3L, 4L, 5L, A, and B section V-belts.

Disconnect and lock out all power to the unit before removing or installing any drive components. Ensure the sheave is properly aligned with the mating sheave and that belt tension is set per the belt manufacturer's specification before returning the system to service.
