1 INTRODUCTION
PULLEYS 9
Power transmission between shafts is achieved either through gear or belt drives. In the latter
case, pulleys are mounted on shafts, over which a belt runs, transmitting the power. Generally,
pulleys are made of cast iron or wrought iron; but at times, from steel plates also, by welded
construction. Depending upon the application, a pulley may be of a single piece or split type.
The latter one is used, where a pulley has to be mounted at an intermediate location on a shaft.
Pulleys are mounted on shafts, by using sunk keys.
