hi, wondering if anyone can direct me to sources of "large" diameter v belt pulley sheaves. so far i've tried surpluscenter.com, mcmaster.com, grainger.com. surpluscenter has good prices but the outside-diameter-width is too wide. grainger is pretty expensive but they don't have the outside diameter i was hoping to get (15"). mcmaster, sadly, doesn't have what i was hoping to get at all.

Probably an industrial supplier of Browning, Woods, or Dodge products. 15" is just getting started for large air handlers...
Do you want sheaves or pulleys? The sheave is what the belt runs in, the pulley is the entity. Could you possibly be looking for a single sheave pulley?

Did you try Martin?

You might check out scrap yards for old clothes dryers. Older ones have a pair of huge pulleys in the back for the large speed reduction required for the drum rotation. Regards, Wolfgang
