(A deep rumble, as packrats all over the globe dig through their pulley box)

... and are endlessly happy that they found exactly the pulley requestet:

  • Right number of steps
  • right diameter for every single step
  • fits exactly the V-belt

You can do the hole size and keyway with your lathe.

They seem to have only one step pulley, and that one has a 3/4" bore:

Maybe I can buy it and drill out to 7/8"... the price is cheap. I just hope that there is enough material to remove 1/8" more.

There are tons of step pulleys with 3/4" bores, check McMaster-Carr. The question is whether you can rebore, but it's not only reboring, you will also have to enlarge the keyway since a 7/8" shaft takes a larger key (I believe).

The surpluscenter pulley has a setscrew...

========= That's why I buy there. Service is not bad either.

Only made three purchases, some gear mortors and some big caps for an EDM project, but everything seems good. Check out their DC motor/controllers.

I bought stuff from them as well.

Dude, How bout .865 bore? (import, of course) Should be able to ream it.

4 step, pitch diams: 2.75, 2, 1.25, .75, about 4" long, looks like at least a 4L belt.

But you must vote for me.

I can vote for you...

buy an oversize bushing with a keyway and turn down the OD.

way you'd have a matching pair.
