A sheave groove, such as the groove in a pulley, allows a rope or wire to pass through unhindered by friction or obstructions. The correct size sheave is required to minimize wear and tear on the rope or wire. When grooves become overly worn or are too large, they may allow excessive movement, which stresses the rope and reduces its life. A groove that is too small will compress the rope, breaking fibers or strands, and reducing the lifespan.

What is the part called where the rope lies on a pulley?
The part of a pulley where the rope lies is called the groove or the sheave. This is the part of the pulley that provides the surface for the rope to run along while the pulley rotates.
What are the minimum changes in set up to increase velocity ratio of single purchase crab?
To increase the velocity ratio of a single purchase crab winch, you can either increase the diameter of the drum or decrease the diameter of the driving sheave. Another option is to increase the number of wraps of the rope on the drum to create more friction and improve the mechanical advantage.
What is the difference between a pulley and a sheave?
A pulley has a bearing that it rides on and a sheave wheel usually has a brass sleeve in it to ride on. A pulley usually has a higher rpm and can take more stress than a sheave wheel. Sheave wheels can have bearings in them, but open ones as opposed to sealed ones in a pulley. Again this has to do with the amount of load required.It is possible there is no difference. Sailors usually call the 'pulleys' on their boats. 'sheaves'. pronounced 'shivs'. Anyway, the word 'sheave' in English originated in German and means 'pulley'. so go figure.*************OK, so here's a 30-year mechanic's answer. Regardless of what the original terminology was, I believe it has come to mean this: A sheave is a pulley wheel (now referred to as a pulley without the word wheel) that has a grooved circumference. Its original purpose was to transmit and/or multiply mechanical power because it is part of a lever system. A pulley also transmits power, but it is not grooved. Examples: 1) the idler pulley of your car engine, which usually acts as a spring loaded belt tensioner. 2) the guide pulley (known as a sprocket) that shifts the chain from one sprocket to another on the back of a bicycle. 3) the drive belt pulley on a farm tractor used to power old fashioned implements. None of these have grooves.So, a sheave is a pulley, but a pulley is not a sheave. Either word should get your point across. It has nothing to do with bearings versus bushings. BTW, a "bushing" used as a load bearing surface is really a bearing, it's just not a roller, tapered roller or ball bearing, but that's another argument.
Where is force applied in a pulley?
Force is applied to a pulley at the point where the rope or cable passes over the wheel or sheave. This force is used to lift or move objects by leveraging the mechanical advantage of the pulley system.
What is the middle part of a pulley?
The middle part of a pulley is called the wheel or sheave. It is the round component that rotates on an axle and around which the belt or rope travels. The wheel is typically grooved to keep the belt or rope in place and provide a better grip for transmitting force.
Is a sheave or a groove the indented wheel of the pulley?
Sheave is another name for the entire pulley, rather than the indentation.
Poulan pro mower and it has the hydrostatic transmission what pulleys do you need to buy and put on it to make it go faster?
Do not think you can. It would require a double sheave at the front with a larger upper sheave or a transmission sheave of a smaller diameter. The CPSC regulates the top speeds, so I doubt you can. Quality of cut is an issue there, also.
What are the parts of a pulley?
wheel, sheave, or drum which turnes an axle or rod. It also has a groove or path along its outside. A rope, chain, or cable slides through the groove.
How do you loosen the sheaves on a pulley for a john deere L111?
The sheaves should just pull off. They have a bearing on the inner diameter of the sheave that mounts on a threaded stud. If the sheave doesn't just pull off, hopefully it is the smaller on and you can remove the lever arm assembly. Then put the sheave on an open vise so the sheave is on the vise and you can tap the threaded rod with a hammer. This isn't great for the bearings, but this is only a lawnmower deck.

What is sheave height?
The sheave height is the distance between the shortest distance from the tip of the sheave (commonly called a "boom") and the ground. It is common to discuss the sheave height with respect to a piece of equipment and get a number which is the maximum sheave height.
A drive pully is spinning 600 rpm and has a diameter of 40 millimeters the driven pully has a diameter of 120 millimeters what speed would the driven pully be?
You would use a 5 inch sheave.
What is the Sheave Height of a Digger Derrick?
The Sheave Height of a Digger Derrick varies. But the average of the Sheave Height for most Digger Derrick goes from 45 till 57.5.

The part of a pulley where the rope lies is called the groove or the sheave. This is the part of the pulley that provides the surface for the rope to run along while the pulley rotates.

Explain what a sheave wheel is and what it does?
A sheave or pulley wheel is a grooved wheel often used for holding a belt, wire rope, or rope and incorporated into a pulley. The sheave spins on an axle or bearing inside the frame of the pulley. This allows the wire or rope to move freely, minimizing friction and wear on the cable. (A sheave is actually part of the pulley system.)
