Abstract

A resin pulley according to the present invention is obtained by molding a resin composition containing a phenol resin serving as a base resin, 15 to 50% by weight of an inorganic powder having a Mohs hardness of not less than 6.5, 20 to 40% by weight of a reinforcing fiber, and 1 to 5% by weight of a lubricant and thermosetting the phenol resin, and is superior in dimensional stability and strength, is also superior in wear resistance particularly in a dust atmosphere or the like, and is superior in practicality as an alternate to a metal pulley.

Claims (5)

1. An improved resin pulley formed at least in part of a resin composition, wherein the improvement comprises:

the resin composition contains a phenol resin as a base resin, and contains 33 to 40% by weight of a spherical silica power, 25 to 30% by weight of a glass fiber, and 1 to 5% by weight of fluororesin powder having an average particle diameter of not more than 10 μm as lubricant.

2. The resin pulley according to claim 1 , wherein the spherical silica powder has an average particle diameter of not more than 30 μm.

3. The resin pulley according to claim 1 , wherein the phenol resin is a phenol resin having a number average molecular weight of 600 to 900.

4. The resin pulley according to claim 1 , wherein the average diameter of the fluororesin powder is not less than 1 μm.
