With a 7\/8-inch bore and 3.95-inch outside diameter, this sheave allows technicians to fine-tune drive speed ratios without changing pulleys or belts. It accepts 3L, 4L, A, 5L, and B belt sections, giving it broad compatibility across common fractional and standard V-belt profiles. Sheave thickness is 3 inches, and the face width adjusts from 1-3\/8 inches to 2 inches. The unit weighs 4.2 pounds. Variable pitch sheaves are standard tools for balancing blower speeds in air handling units and fan coil installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis sheave is used in residential and light commercial HVAC systems, particularly on belt-driven blower assemblies, fan coil units, and air handlers where motor-to-blower speed ratios require field adjustment. It is also suited for industrial fan and pump drive applications. The adjustable pitch design lets a technician dial in the correct CFM output or equipment speed during commissioning or when correcting airflow issues, without sourcing a fixed-bore replacement sheave.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-groove variable pitch design allows on-site speed ratio adjustment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAccepts belt sections 3L, 4L, A, 5L, and B for wide belt compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e7\/8-inch bore fits common blower and fan shaft sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3.95-inch outside diameter with 3-inch sheave thickness\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFace width adjustable from 1-3\/8 inches to 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePitch diameter range: 2.5 to 3.3 inches for 3L belts; 2.6 to 3.6 inches for 4L\/A belts; 2.9 to 3.9 inches for 5L\/B belts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or upgrade variable pitch sheave for belt-driven blower and fan assemblies that use 3L, 4L, A, 5L, or B section V-belts with a 7\/8-inch shaft bore.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a licensed HVAC technician or millwright. Disconnect and lock out all electrical power to the unit before removing or installing any sheave or belt. Ensure the sheave bore is fully seated and set screws are tightened to the shaft before reconnecting the drive belt and restoring power. Verify belt tension and alignment after adjustment per standard belt drive service procedures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBore Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.875 inches (7\/8 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.95 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: 1.375 to 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Belt Sections\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3L, 4L, A, 5L, B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch Diameter Range (3L)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 to 3.3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch Diameter Range (4L\/A)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.6 to 3.6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch Diameter Range (5L\/B)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.9 to 3.9 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.2 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 26111800\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: 1045871\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BROWNING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540145504562,"sku":"1045871","price":161.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1ea677935738d4c0f0b9692e99b7de65.jpg?v=1785847020","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/browning-1045871-variable-pitch-sheave-2-groove-3-95in-od","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
