Twoply 0 #1 December 29, 2017 I'm fabricating a little something and I need a very specific pulley. Problem is my vocabulary is lacking. I need this portion of the shaft to be exactly 2 3/8". What is this portion of the pulley referred to as? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wolfriverjoe 1,442 #4 December 29, 2017 I'm gonna go with "Hub", maybe "integral hub", since it seems to be cast as one piece along with the wheel."There are NO situations which do not call for a French Maid outfit."

Niki1 1 #8 December 30, 2017 I'm going to guess Bushing for the axle. The 2 female screw inserts look like that is fastened to something else. The axle appears to be inserted into that. OR the inserts are for set screws to fix the pulley (channel wheel?) axle to the large hub in which case the hub would be an enlarged extension of the axle. This probably makes no sense whatsoever but it's not the first time I've done this.Most of the things worth doing in the world had been declared impossilbe before they were done.

rmsmith 1 #10 December 30, 2017 Since that pulley will be rotating with the shaft it is likely that the shaft and pulley share a key way. Do a search for "keyed shaft and pulley" in the image area. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dpreguy 14 #13 January 1, 2018 It is not a bushing, as a bushing is internal and is a bearing surface. A bushing is typically installed to reduce the diameter of the hole a shaft goes into. It is not an axle, as an axle is the shaft that a wheel or pully turns around. It is not a shaft. It is a device that slips over a shaft. I think that part of the drawing is best described as a sleeve with threaded set screw holes. (As a sleeve "slips over somethng".) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
