Pulley Wheel with 2 Bearing, Cable Pully Block Heavy Duty for Washing Line/Rope Loading 500kg…

Great pulley better quality than expected

What a cracking piece piece of kit for the the price. Only one failing, no solid spacer between the the two ball races. This short coming is quickly over come with a few M10 plain washers, undo M10 bolt through pulley, pull out pulley from shieve. Bearings will drop out of pulley, put one bearing back into pulley, stack M10 washers inside between bearings replace other bearing and squeeze bearings together with finger pressure. The correct number of washers will allow the bearings slight side to side play, no side play, add more washers, too much side play remove a washer. Replace M10 bolt and tighten fully. This should stop the pulley rubbing on the shieve when under load. Those with a lathe can machine a solid spacer, mine was 5.25mm. If you are using this device outside in the rain, change the bearings to 6000rs, I used stainless steel bearings which were less than £3.00 each on Amazon.

brilliant and so smooth

Lockdown has us training more at home and now easing has started to take place and having others to visit to train too it's time to crank it up a notch.For most exercises that can be carried out on a cable machine, we have been using multiple sets of resistance tubes, with each set set up to replicate a particular exercise that would be performed on the cable machine itself such cable flyes (2 sets required), triceps pushdowns/overhead extensions, bicep curls and even through to ab crunches. All performed just fine but for some exercises and a severe pump a true cable pulley has been in much need, this is where this pulley wheel comes in to play to make our own cable pulley.Whilst we could have purchased a premade setup from one of many sellers, these kits don't have much in the way of weight capacity, with most sitting around 20kg whereas for myself I need something in the region of 70kg for some exercises and more for a lot more. Massive difference. Having seen many diy setups, it was time to do my own.Firstly, the pulley has a weight capacity that will easily accommodate the weights need for all of my exercises plus a lot harder wearing than the plastic pulley often included with the premade kits. The construction of the pulley is top-notch as you'd expect for something capable of holding up to 500kg. In motion, the pulley is smooth and silent with the plastic-covered cable wire rolling without drag or any sticky points as I perform my exercises. Whether just loading 50kg or 100kg it has been faultless and I can imagine it being the same at greater weights.What did I use to make the cable pulley:1 x Pulley https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0893ZY71H/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=15 x Metres of Plastic coated wire Rope https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B084WXK1P9/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=14 x M8 Carabiners https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00JFFTIE0/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=18 x Wire Thimbles to make loops in wire cable to clip carabiners on to https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01BSV79DA/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=16 x Wire Rope Cable clamps https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01LX40PX1/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=11 x weight Plate Holder / Loader (Acquired from an old wrist roller) Alternative option is to use 45cm of cable rope and make a strap to hold the plates withThe above coupled with some cable machine attachments that already had (rope, handles, close grip handle, and a straight bar) and use with the resistance tubes we have makes a great bit of kit that we can attach to the power rack and perform a lot of exercises with greater intensity and with a greater level of security in its ability to hold a substantial weight whilst being secure.

Very good

This item is well made and was delivered promptly

Wheel has gone totally rusty after 2 months. Rubbish

This is a great product. Quiet and smooth action for my home gym. I wish they had been available during the lockdown after having to put up with the noise of the M25 pulleys which was all I could seem to get. I am only using a low weight for aerobic exercise and high reps so they get a lot of movement. Highly recommended.
