Ed, Give me a call tomorrow and I'll give you the number. I put about six of them on, but I prefer the adjustable pulley from AMF. The adj. sheave is a solid piece of metal. Heavy duty item. They cost a lot more, but they're worth the money.

Originally posted by amfpinboy: The Grainger sheave is much cheaper, but it may split open after awhile. Mid State Bowl had a few fold over. You get what you pay for.

If you want to go across a 16 lane house the difference is $30 per pulley = $480 saved.

All I want in life is to turn wrenches and climb around pinsetters/pinspotters again :/
How many of what size do you need? Ive got some extras, maybe we could work out a trade (Plus shipping and handling)lol, I'm always in need of something.
Give the most difficult task to the laziest workers. They will eventually find the easiest possible way of getting it done!
I double checked the pulley problem that the other house had. Steve told me that the pulleys that failed were not the same ones that we were discussing. The failed sheaves were two piece and spot welded together.

Those adjustable Mahaska pulleys are huge and can be a bit of a pain to get on. I got some smaller ones from Larry at Tri-State that work great. Five inch ones i think. Look just like the ones in the picture. I think it's worth the couple extra seconds they take to get the pins back up to the bin when compared to the wait of a pile up. Especially on machines prone to pile ups. Come on..... we all have them right????? Right??? Bueller? Bueller? [img]/content/btubb/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif[/img]
