5V Series Cast Iron Five-Groove QD Sheaves for “5V” Belts

5V Series Cast Iron Five-Groove QD Sheaves for “5V” Belts

5V series five-groove QD (quick detachable) bushed sheaves(5V Series Cast Iron Five-Groove QD Sheaves) are manufactured for 5V, 5VX, banded 5V, and banded 5VX belts. They range from 4.40″ to 50.00″ in diameter. Depending on the sheave size, they are made to use an SD, SK, SF, E, F, or J QD bushing, which we also stock. Most of our five-groove 5V QD sheaves are manufactured from a high-strength grade 35 cast iron, are phosphate-coated, and are painted for anti-corrosion. All of them are balanced at the factory for smooth machinery operation.

Related Matching 5V, 5VX Series V-Belt

(1) 5V-Series V-Belts

Classic 5V-Series V-Belts have a 0.63″ top-width, 0.53″ thickness, and a 38° angle. Additionally, 5V V-belts are one of the oldest styles of V-Belts in the industry. Because of their long-term success and economical operation, they are also one of the industry’s most widely used belt series. The premium 5V-series v-belts we supply are manufactured under ISO 9001 specifications, are oil and heat resistant, and directly interchange with other brands. They are constructed of a natural rubber compound with polyester cords and use cotton with a polyester blend cover for high durability. 5V series belts are used in most general heavy-duty industrial applications along with Heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC), lawn and garden equipment, and agricultural equipment.

(2) 5VX Cogged V-Belts

5VX cogged v-belts are designated by having a 0.53″ top-width and 0.53″ thickness. Our cogged 5VX v-belts are manufactured with raw-edge sidewalls to eliminate slippage and increase efficacy, saving operation costs. They are also manufactured by ARPM standards and are oil and heat-resistant. 5VX belts are constructed from a high-quality chloroprene compound with high-strength polyester chords and have a top fabric built from a cotton polyester blend. Besides the performance, durability, and energy savings benefits, our cogged v-belts will work with existing stand pulleys/ sheaves. Please contact us for a quote on 5VX cogged v-belts or pulleys, and we will be happy to assist you.

(3) 5V-Series Banded V-Belts

5V-series v-belts are a part of the “classic” lineup of v-belts because they are one of the oldest and most common style belts. Our belts are manufactured by ARPM standards and offer superior strength, durability, and performance. 5V-series v-belts have a 0.63″ top-width per belt (band/ rib).

(4) 5VX Banded Cogged V-Belts

All our v-belts are manufactured by ARPM specifications and offer superior performance and durability. Due to their design, banded 5VX cogged v-belts run smoother, more relaxed, and typically outlast a standard banded C v-belt. They also offer a higher efficiency than ordinary banded v-belts, which means fewer energy costs. We can also stock sheaves/ pulleys for 5VX banded belts.

QD Bushings | Quick Disconnect Bushings

QD bushings are utilized throughout the industrial power transmission and agricultural industry for various sprockets, sheaves, pulleys, and synchronized drives. They are designed for easy installation and easy uninstallation; they are also commonly referred to as quick-disconnect bushings. QD bushings can help conventional mounting with the flange outboard and reverse mounting to where the flange is inboard and utilize a single split that extends through the entire bushing length. Our QD bushings interchange with other brands and are made from high-grade steel precision machined for perfect application fitment. QD bushings’ benefits over different styles include; ease of installation/ uninstall, superior holding power, and extreme strengths. We stock all the standard sizes of QD bushings and supply custom QD bushings upon request, including stainless steel ones. QD bushings are found in some of the most rugged applications worldwide; contact our customer service team today for a quote or additional information on our premium QD bushings.

American Standard Pulley Features

The pulley belongs to the hub-type parts and generally has a relatively sizeable relative size. The manufacturing process is usually based on casting and forging. Typically, the casting method designs the larger size, and the material is generally cast iron (good casting performance). Cast steel is rarely used (the casting performance of steel is not good). Generally, the smaller size can be designed for forging For steel.

The American standard pulley has a quick-release and easy-to-install pulley taper locking sleeve (QD taper sleeve), which is easy to install and remove. Shaft sleeves allow the installation of the same mating part on shafts of different diameters and the structure of various pulleys on the same post using the same sleeve. They are split and tapered by the flange to provide the effective self-locking principle of the sleeve shrink fit. All sizes are installed with screws at the key to helping keep the bushing on the shaft until the screws are tightened.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Pulley Drive

The advantages of the pulley drive are: the pulley drive can alleviate the impact of the load; the pulley drive runs smoothly, with low noise and low vibration; the pulley drive has a simple structure and is easy to adjust; the pulley drive is not as strict in the manufacture and installation of the v belt pulley as the meshing drive; the pulley drive It has the function of overload protection; the adjustment range of the center distance between the two axles driven by the pulley is extensive. The disadvantages of the belt drive are: the pulley drive has adjustable sliding and slipping, the transmission efficiency is low, and the correct transmission ratio cannot be maintained; when the pulley drive transmits the same large circumferential force, the contour size and the pressure on the shaft are more significant than the meshing drive; the pulley drive belt shorter lifespan.
