Correct motor pulley/sheave size for Atlas 7" metal shaper?
Hi all,
We recently acquired a 7" Atlas shaper in reasonably good condition, but without motor. We're installing a 1/2hp 1725rpm 3 phase Baldor as a replacement but, even armed with the Atlas Repair Parts List brochure, are uncertain of the correct motor sheave diameter for the machine. Any suggestions? Many thanks. Kris Boutilier |

Correct motor pulley/sheave size for Atlas 7" metal shaper?
On mine, the pulley on the motor is a 2" outside dimension. The motor is a
Walker-Turner 1725 rpm, 1/2 hp, single phase. Hope this helps. Respectfully, Ron Moore "kb1_kanobe" wrote in message ups.com...

Correct motor pulley/sheave size for Atlas 7" metal shaper?
Thanks Ron, that did the trick.
For those who may come seeking the same information later; assuming that you're using the original stepped pulleys you'll probably do well with a Dayco #15300 automotive V-belt. Assuming a 2" pulley on the motor and the original pulley on the jack shaft, a Dayco #15260 belt also works well and will allow the belt to slip cleanly when the clutch is disengaged. |
