Browning 2-GRV VARIABLE PITCH SHEAVES BRW 2-VP-68 X 1-3/8
The principle of a variable pitch sheave is that the threaded angular faced discs forming the V-shaped groove in which the belt rides are movable. VP sheaves consist of a male with a threaded barrel, and a female with a threaded bore. The male section with threaded barrel has flat surfaces at 180 deg increments that allow a flat surface for the setscrew to mate with. When the discs are moved toward each other, the belt rides higher in the groove and the pitch diameter of the sheave is larger which increases the driven speed. When the discs are moved away from each other, the belt rides lower and the pitch diameter is smaller decreasing the driven speed. The common term for this speed adjustment is called number of turns open from closed position.

Browning® offers an extensive multi groove sheave offering. This includes Browning® SPLIT TAPER® and QD® bushing designs. This means maximum economy and versatility for your application. Truly the right drive every time! Our exclusive B5V® sheaves have a patented design that offers 5 V hp in the economy of a B section sheave. B5V® sheaves serve 90% of all applications from 10 to 150 hp. This can reduce cost up to 40% over traditional designs.
Synchronous belt drives help reduce the problems of slippage, belt stretch, lubrication and metal to metal contact. They provide superior performance because power is transmitted by positive engagement of belt teeth rather than by friction, as in conventional belt drives.
