drill press pulley

hoof print · Dec 30, 2012

I need a spindle pulley for an old craftsman drill press I was given. It is a stepped variable pulley 4 sheave, 5, 5, 3, and 2 inch. The original is a browning SCZ3.

Sears parts lists this pulley as NLA, and google searches cannot locate a place to actually BUY the thing!

Does anybody have a source for this pulley?

If you have a belt and bearing supply store near you they might be able to order one that would work.

Google McMaster Carr and search for 'Step-Cone V-Belt Pulleys'. They have 4-groove pulleys about halfway down the page. Hope this helps. BTW, I've ordered stuff from them and usually get it the next day.

Arbor and keyway?

If these guys don't have it they can get it. Got one for my press there. They will ship it.

Thanks for the suggestions! Gordo, no key, it has a set screw

Browning is still in business. Contact a local bearing supply house, or a national supplier: McMaster-Carr, Motion Industries, etc. Measure your old pulley diameters, belt profile and shaft size, you should be able to find a replacement.

I looked all over for the same pulley with no success. I started looking for a parts drill press and found a very good drill press for less than the cost of a pulley. The seller told me that he had it in a garage sale but no one wanted that old stuff anymore.

Are you missing the pulley? Or is it damaged or wore out? Is the center splined?

Jim, I do have the pulley, the center is wallowed out. No splines.

thanks! I have been keeping an eye out for a parts press

You might consider having the center of your old pulley bored out and sleeved.
