Roll Formed Sheaves

About Roll Formed Sheaves

Roll Formed sheaves are manufactured using a unique process that ensures reliable and economical production for medium-duty applications:

  1. Pre-Machining: Starts with a steel disc with the outside diameter and inside diameter machined.
  2. Roll- Forming: Disc is placed into the roll forming machine where it is spun at high speeds while groove dies are pressed into the sides to form the specific rope groove.
  3. Welding: Pre-machined hubs of a specified outside diameter and length are welded into the formed blanks.
  4. Post-Machining: Sheave bore machined in lathe for the particular bore option needed.
  5. Bearing/Bushing Install: If the sheave needs a bearing or bushing, it is installed using a hydraulic press.

Bear Equipment Roll Formed sheaves offer outside diameters from 8″ to 12″, grooves for rope diameters from 1/4″ to 1″, and multiple bore options, catering to a wide range of medium-duty sheave needs.
