The 160 5C pulley is a V-belt drive pulley with section C, 160 mm diameter and 5 grooves. It is used to drive shafts from a motor or to distribute power among several shafts from a single belt. It is in-house manufactured, EMMAR brand, so it is produced with direct control over groove machining and balancing. If you need to replace a worn pulley or build a new drive, this size covers medium and high power ranges.
This item is a pulley with 160 mm diameter, 5 grooves and section C. The designation POLEA 160 5C summarizes those three data points: the 160 mm outside diameter, the 5 grooves where the belts rest and section C, which defines the width and depth of the groove. Section C is used with V-belts of profile C, the highest capacity among the classic sections. Being in-house manufactured, EMMAR brand, groove machining and body balance are controlled at our plant.
Typical applications are power transmissions in industrial plants: fans, centrifugal pumps, screw compressors, conveyor belts and mixers. It is also used in agricultural machinery and in process equipment where speed must be increased or reduced with a fixed ratio. The 5 grooves allow the load to be distributed among several belts, which provides margin to transmit more power or to keep operating if a belt breaks, something valued in critical equipment that cannot stop without warning.
To mount this pulley, take into account the shaft diameter and the type of fastening: keyway, taper bushing or set screw, depending on how the bore is machined. Check that the driving and driven pulleys are aligned in the same plane; a misalignment of a few degrees wears the belt and the groove. Belt tension is adjusted according to the equipment manual or with a tension gauge. If the pulley will rotate at high speed, it is advisable to check balancing before putting it into service.
