Cast Sheaves Rigging, With Bronze Bushing

This document details the range of SEF rigging sheaves equipped with bronze bushings. These units are preferred for applications where traditional roller bearings may not be suitable, offering reliable performance and high resistance to wear. The catalog provides a complete dimensional matrix for models up to 40.16 inches in tread diameter, specifying compatibility with various wire rope sizes and shaft configurations.

Engineered for Precision & Heavy-Duty Load Tension

The Cast Sheave with Bronze Bushing is a robust and reliable solution for industrial rigging applications where secure guidance and consistent load management are essential. The bronze bushing design provides superior self-lubricating properties and smooth rotation compared to standard fittings, critical for structural stability and controlled lifting environments.

Maximum Safety Features
  • Self-Lubricating Bronze Bushing: Precision-fitted bronze bearings ensure reduced friction and long-term durability.
  • High-Strength Cast Material: Manufactured from premium cast material to withstand the rigors of heavy industrial rigging.
  • Safety Standard Compliance: Designed and tested in accordance with rigorous safety information provided on page 136.
  • Verified Structural Integrity: Each model is engineered for predictable performance under high load conditions.
Industrial Flexibility
  • Extensive WLL and Size Range: Available in tread diameters from 3.15 inches up to 40.16 inches to meet diverse project needs.
  • Custom Shaft Integration: Design allows for different shaft sizes to ensure a functional fit for existing equipment.
  • Adjustable Wire Groove: The groove radius (R) may be precision-adjusted to accommodate various wire rope diameters.
  • Versatile Finishing: Engineered to perform in both standard construction and corrosive marine environments.
