DanSteely Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Hi Folks, I'm trying to track down a couple of pulley's like these? The wheel needs to be able to accommodate 3mm wire rope... Any ideas? http://i1277.photobucket.com/albums/y496/dansteely123/EdgePulleyMk-01-1_zps90df1251.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
portytech Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Something like these or could you modify a suitcase style roller?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin D Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 If this is going to carry any sort of weight or support things above people, I strongly suggest you look up lifting engineers in your local area. http://www.ruskin.co.uk/ are near me and extremely helpful. There must be similar near you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jivemaster Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 For a load bearing item, consider asking Doughty Engineering to create a special product for you. Whatever they supply will need securely fitting to the body of the supported item. Consider the SHL of 3mm wire rope too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanSteely Posted August 17, 2013 Author Share Posted August 17, 2013 Thanks for all suggestions thus far. A custom solution seems like a good idea - the problem might be the cost... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boatman Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 It's not quite what you're looking for but you might be able to adapt one of these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonathanhill Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 It's not quite what you're looking for but you might be able to adapt one of these. I wouldn't, it has no SWL and the groove in the sheave is not correct for 3mm wire rope as they are designed for sash cord. e2a: spelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jivemaster Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 The OP has not stated the load they intend this pulley to bear, and what it will be made from. Note that 3mm steel rope searches on Google with SWLs between Doughty's 100kilos and ebay's 850kilos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadpixel Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Flints would be as good a place to start looking as any. http://www.flints.co.uk/pdfcatalogue/2.59-2.71_Pulleys.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Pearce Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Halls Stage are another company that could source or produce something appropriate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
