Pulleys carry power from a motor to a driven shaft, or guide a belt around a drive. AIMS Industrial supplies V-pulleys, timing pulleys and idler pulleys from Finer Power Transmissions, Aetna, Don Dye and Stenco, in taper lock, pilot bore and finished bore styles.

Choosing a pulley

Start with the belt. V-belts run on V-pulleys matched to the belt section, such as SPZ, SPA, SPB, SPC, A or B. Toothed belts run on timing pulleys of the same profile and pitch, such as HTD 5M or T10. Idler pulleys guide or tension a belt and are chosen by belt type, section and outside diameter.

Next check the bore style. Taper lock pulleys fit the shaft with a taper lock bush, pilot bore pulleys are listed with a pilot bore, and finished bore pulleys are listed with a finished bore. Then check the pitch diameter or tooth count and the number of grooves or belt width for your drive.

Always check the data sheet. Confirm the section or profile, size and bore against your belt and shaft before ordering.
