Hi Guys,

Been nosing around the scrap yard again ! That nice man had put this motor on one side for me, he knows I like motors.

Brand new still in its Styrofoam packing and plastic bag.
Its a 1Hp single phase induction motor. It has a bag of fittings with it which is nice. The motor mounting clamps are there along with three multi grove belt pulleys, a tolerance ring and fitting tool. I've seen similar motors on tumble dryers, where a great big multi "V" belt wraps right around the drum and this motor provides the drive. The motor works fine and runs at 2850 rpm. The date on the box was 1992. I didn't bother bringing the box or Styrofoam packaging home. For a motor that has sat in its packaging for over 25 years, its in great shape.

Now I need to find a suitable mounting cradle for it.
