Pulley, also known as a pulley, is a mechanism composed of wheels or shafts. There may be grooves between the two flanges around its circumference. Belts or chains usually run above the reels and in tracks, if any.
Pulley is used to changing the applied force's direction, transmit rotary motion, or realize mechanical advantages in linear or rotary action systems. The combination of two or more pulleys is called a pulley block. This is one of six simple machines.
The V-belt pulley is a technically qualified product of V-belt driving pulley applicable to various equipment and machinery. Your complete specifications will provide us with more specific pulley requirements. We also produce customized products according to the customer's size and unique needs.
Advantages of Gripbelt Sheaves with Split Taper Bushings:
- Secure and Concentric Fit: The split taper design provides a very strong and concentric grip on the shaft. This ensures accurate alignment, reduces vibration, and prevents fretting (wear due to small movements) between the shaft and the sheave.
- Easy Installation and Removal ("Easy On - Easy Off"): This is a major advantage. Unlike fixed-bore sheaves that require a precise fit and often force to install/remove, split taper bushings allow for quick and easy mounting and dismounting. Simply tightening or loosening the screws on the bushing locks or releases the sheave from the shaft. This saves significant time and effort during assembly, maintenance, or replacement.
- Interchangeability: Split taper bushings are often standardized across various manufacturers. This means a single sheave can accept different bore sizes by simply changing the bushing, which reduces inventory requirements and offers greater flexibility.
- High Torque Carrying Capacity: The positive clamping action of the tapered bushing, often combined with an external key (keying to both shaft and hub via the bushing), provides excellent torque transmission capabilities. This ensures reliable power transfer even under heavy loads.
- Reduced Machining Costs: Manufacturers can stock standard sheaves with tapered bores, and distributors/users can then quickly match them with the correct size split taper bushing for any given shaft diameter, eliminating the need for custom machining each sheave bore.
- Versatility: The combination of a V-belt sheave with a split taper bushing is extremely versatile, suitable for a wide range of power transmission applications from light-duty to heavy-duty.
- Vibration Reduction: A truly concentric fit helps to reduce vibration in the drive system, leading to smoother operation and potentially extending the life of belts and bearings.
- "Self-Locking" Taper: The tapered fit often creates a self-locking action, contributing to the secure connection.
Applications of Gripbelt Sheaves with Split Taper Bushings:
These sheaves are widely used in any industrial or agricultural application that requires efficient and reliable power transmission via V-belts, particularly where ease of installation, maintenance, and high torque capacity are valued.

How to measure V-pulleys | Dimensions, and dimensions
One of the most widely used and fastest-growing product types in the power transmission and automobile industry is the V-belt pulley, also known as "pulley." The V-belt pulley is an accessory that transmits energy between shafts through V-belt. However, to maintain the regular operation of this pair of crucial equipment, when the old V-belt pulley is worn, it must be ensured to replace the appropriate V-belt pulley. To do this, you need to know the size, size, and type of the V-pulley so that the replacement pulley can work properly. Learning to measure the size of the V-belt pulley and calculate it is a simple task; However, correctly identifying the V-pulley type can be complex. V-pulleys are available in various styles and options, including a, B, C, D, 3V, 5V, 8V, variable pitch, double grooves, and metric pulleys. We only stock more than 8000 different V-pulleys.
