Dodge 3V QD Sheaves are multi-groove V-belt pulleys with a removable QD bushing, designed to transmit power in equipment with 3V section belts. The QD system allows the pulley to be mounted and removed from the shaft without dismantling the rest of the drive, which simplifies maintenance and replacement. They are used in fans, pumps, compressors and conveyors, among other industrial applications. MR Accesorios Industriales sells them in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

The designation of these pulleys reads in three parts. The first number indicates the number of grooves: 1-3V8.0–SDS has one groove, 2-3V6.5–SDS has two and 3-3V4.75–SDS has three. Then comes the belt section, in this case 3V, followed by the pitch diameter in inches, which varies by code. The SDS suffix identifies the type of QD bushing the pulley houses, which defines the admissible shaft diameter range. So, for example, 3-3V5.0–SDS is a three-groove 3V pulley with a 5.0 inch pitch diameter and SDS bushing.

These pulleys are seen in process plants, water treatment, cement, food and mining, always on V-belt drives. In Argentina they appear in centrifugal fans, centrifugal pumps, screw compressors, screens and conveyors. The combination of several grooves makes it possible to cover high power with a single pulley-belt assembly, and the QD bushing makes replacement easy when the pulley diameter is changed to adjust the speed of the driven equipment.

To select a 3V QD pulley correctly you have to start from the power, the motor RPM and the driven equipment RPM, and from there come the number of grooves and the pitch diameter. The QD bushing is chosen by shaft diameter and is fixed with bolts onto the hub; it is advisable to check that the bushing falls within the range allowed by the SDS suffix. During assembly, align the pulleys with a straightedge or laser, tension the belt according to the manufacturer's manual and check the tightening of the bushing bolts after the first hours of operation.

3V QD pulleys are interchanged between brands by the number of grooves, the belt section and the pitch diameter, as long as the QD bushing is compatible. Dodge, Browning and other lines use the same QD system, so often only the pulley or only the bushing is replaced. If you need a size you do not see, send the code or the model on WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales and we will tell you the compatible alternative or manufacture it to measure.
