Haban 325 and 374 deck spindle-grease bolt length?
I'm working on a new project and need to know how long the top pulley grease bolt is on either the Haban 325 or 374 mower decks.
I have a sample spindle but the top bolt was broken off in it. The thread size is 1/2-20 NF but I need the length Thanks Jeff |
Got an email stating it's a 1-1/2" long bolt :beerchug:

Here is a pic of a set of them. Maybe you can get an idea of the length from the pic. :beerchug: |

I'm starting a new project and the person who will be the "tester" happened to be busy with his kid and didn't answer the email ( not PM ) I had sent. I posted the question here and shortly afterward, the tester replied. One picture of a partial unit I'm starting on. It still needs the collar made. This will be the expensive replacement, I'm working on a more affordable unit too. Jeff |

Looks great Jeff!! Just like always!:ThumbsUp: Well.... :RedFace2: My bad. :Sorry: But you do see that quite a bit on here. Instead of answering via a post in a thread, people will send a PM to the OP. I don't understand why people do that. I've had people do it to me, and I told them to go make a post on the thread. Glad I was wrong this time. :beerchug: |
No problem at all Jon. You made a very good point and it was just this time the timing didn't work in my favor.
I have a feeling the spindle shown won't sell well due to the cost. It's a hardened material and it's tough on carbide tools. I'm getting material tomorrow for a more affordable unit. I have an original factory spindle and I can nick it easily with a file. |
Jeff,
Remember that a hardened shaft could break more easily than a softer shaft if it has become brittle from heat treatment. I bet you can be competitive with the OEM price. Are you just welding the bottom piece to the shaft or cutting splines like the OEM? |

I cut the keyway in addition the threading both ends plus the drilling grease hole. |
