Product Description
The 10cm Large Plastic Pulley Wheel is a robust mechanical component designed for applications requiring significant torque transfer or high-displacement motion. Featuring a generous 100mm diameter and a 20mm width, this pulley is engineered to handle larger drive belts, ropes, or elastic bands compared to standard hobby pulleys. Its 6mm centre bore makes it perfectly compatible with high-torque DC geared motors and standard 6mm steel rods. At Robogears, we recommend this pulley for building heavy-duty conveyor systems, complex lifting mechanisms, and school science projects that demonstrate the mechanical advantage of pulley systems.
Detailed Key Features
Significant Mechanical Advantage: The 100mm large diameter allows for substantial speed reduction or torque increase when paired with smaller motor-side pulleys.
Precision 6mm Bore: Specifically sized for a secure fit on 6mm shafts, ensuring reliable power transmission without wobbling.
Wide 20mm Profile: The 2cm width provides a stable track for wider belts or multi-strand ropes, preventing them from slipping off during operation.
Durable Plastic Construction: Moulded from high-strength plastic that offers excellent wear resistance while remaining lightweight to reduce rotational inertia.
Versatile Mounting: Can be used as a primary drive pulley on a motor or as a free-spinning idler wheel in a complex mechanical linkage.
