Electric crankshaft belt polisher. Engine reconditioning hand tool
These were originally made with proprietary high-speed electric motors which were not only heavy but had the main switch in an inconvenient place. Later versions were powered by small electric drills which had changed from using aluminium casings to plastic, so with the chuck and casing removed the armature spindle was used to drive the belt. The disadvantage was that the spindle only about 8 mm diameter was splined and the drive pulley eventually worked loose when the grub screw lost its grip.
Nowadays electric drills are made differently and can no longer be modified to use this purpose as they are split lengthwise right through the casing from the chuck to the handle. The motor is a 220 V double insulated plus a circuit breaker fitted in situ.
Designed for use with abrasive belts which I can supply in 20, 25 and 28 mm widths. Driven pulleys run on sealed bearings are rather than plain ones. The motor drive pulley has a helical wire thread insert for longevity. Total weight is less than 4 kg. Also see my grinding paste for sale.
