With a 7\/8 inch bore and a 3.35 inch outside diameter, this cast iron sheave allows the pitch diameter to be adjusted by opening or closing the sheave flanges, giving technicians the ability to fine-tune drive speed ratios without changing components. Sheave thickness is 3 inches and face width ranges from 1-3\/8 to 2 inches. It weighs 3.2 pounds and is built to handle belt sections 3L, 4L, 5L, A, and B.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis sheave is commonly used in belt-driven HVAC blower assemblies, commercial air handlers, and light industrial machinery where variable fan or blower speed is needed. The adjustable pitch design makes it a practical choice during system commissioning or when correcting blower RPM without replacing motors or pulleys outright. HVAC technicians and mechanical contractors typically specify this component when balancing airflow in residential or light commercial systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo-groove variable pitch design allows field adjustment of drive ratio\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with 3L, 4L, 5L, A, and B belt sections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCast iron construction for durability in continuous belt-drive service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e7\/8 inch bore diameter with 3.35 inch outside diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFace width range of 1-3\/8 to 2 inches accommodates belt alignment adjustment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSheave thickness of 3 inches for stable two-groove belt tracking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or upgrade sheave for belt-driven blower and fan assemblies using 3L, 4L, 5L, A, or B section V-belts with a 7\/8 inch bore shaft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified HVAC technician or mechanical contractor. Shut down and lock out the motor and disconnect power before removing or installing sheaves. Use a proper sheave puller to remove the existing pulley and verify bore and belt section compatibility before mounting. After installation, check belt tension and alignment per the belt manufacturer guidelines before returning the system to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBore Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.35 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Grooves\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSheave Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFace Width Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-3\/8 to 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Belt Sections\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3L, 4L, 5L, A, B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Pitch Diameter (3L Belt)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.9 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Pitch Diameter (3L Belt)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.7 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Pitch Diameter (4L or A Belt)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.0 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Pitch Diameter (4L or A Belt)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.0 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Pitch Diameter (5L or B Belt)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Pitch Diameter (5L or B Belt)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.2 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 1045830\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BROWNING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542811246898,"sku":"1045830","price":211.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/8072950c8f20351bade62f63bc558629.jpg?v=1785908075","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/browning-1045830-2-groove-variable-pitch-sheave-7-8-in-bore","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
