motor12 367 #1 Posted November 20, 2014 I have been looking for a match for the #1611 drive pulley on my 854. I have found a cast iron pulley DIA.4" ID.3/4" and the keyway is 3/16" part # 13-5882 supplied by http://mfgsupply.com priced at $23.29. Does anyone know if this can be used as a substitute for the #1611. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ri702bill 7,269 #2 Posted November 20, 2014 Hello: The website does not mention either the belt groove width nor the groove depth / diameter, nor its overall width. You need it for a 4L (half inch wide) belt. I bought a different cast pulley from McMaster & I ordered it by pulley & outside diameter only to find the belt sat deeper in the groove. Seems they now sell a wider as well as deeper groove version to accomodate 2 different series of belts. I had to cut the sides back to make it thin enough to fit under my 854 belt guard. Then I needed a 69 inch long belt instead of the original 70 inch. Hope that helps. Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
motor12 367 #3 Posted November 20, 2014 Thanks Bill, yes it does help. I am going to wait for the correct pulley (1611) you are right, when you change one thing five other things won't fit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
