4.5 Test methods.

4.5.1 Examination of product. Each sample pulley shall be carefully examined to

determine conformance to this specification and the applicable specification sheet with respect to
dimensions, tolerance, weight, finish, identification of product, and workmanship.

4.5.2 Temperature. The pulley assembly shall be subjected to a temperature of -65 °F

for 48 hours and to a temperature of 250 °F for 48 hours. Any pulley assembly showing cracks,
splits, or warpage as a result of this test shall be cause for rejection.

4.5.3 Corrosion. Type I nonmetallic pulleys shall be exposed to 95 percent relative

humidity at 100 °F for 48 hours. The pulleys shall be removed from the humidity chamber and
the pulley surfaces tested for the presence of efflorescent chloride salts by placing a drop of 20
percent nitric acid and a drop of 3.0 percent silver nitrate solution on the same spot of the

4.5.6.1 Failure under endurance test. A pulley shall be considered to have failed when
any of the following conditions develop, either during the test or at the conclusion of the test:

a. The root diameter is reduced more than 1/32-inch as specified in table IV.
b. The pulley fails when subjected to the wobble clearance and bearing strength test as
specified in 4.5.7.
c. The pulley fails when subjected to the bonding strength test as specified in 4.5.8.

4.5.7 Wobble clearance and bearing strength. The inner bearing race shall be secured to
a plane surface and the limit load applied with 180 degrees cable wrap and 2 degrees pulloff as
shown on figure 3. The minimum clearance between the plane surface and the pulley flange,
measured at the point of load application, shall be determined by placing the load at various
positions about the complete circumference of the pulley as shown on table V. The test shall be
repeated with the pulley inverted.

4.5.8 Bonding strength. The pulley shall be supported in a fixture as shown on figure 4.
The bearing shall be unsupported and free to be pushed out of the sheave in case of failure. The
load specified in table VI for the particular size pulley under test shall be applied gradually to the
inner race of the bearing perpendicular to the plane of the pulley. The maximum load shall be
maintained for not less than 10 seconds. The test shall be repeated with the pulley inverted.

4.5.9 Flange strength. The pulley shall be clamped in a fixture as shown on figure 5, in
such a manner as to hold the sheave rigidly. The diameter of the gage disk shall be as specified
on figure 5. The load specified in table VII for the particular size pulley under test shall be
applied to the inside of the flange perpendicular to the plane of the pulley, through the loading
block in line with the root diameter. Both flanges shall be tested with the load being applied 90
degrees apart. The maximum load shall be maintained for not less than 10 seconds.

4.5.10 Sheave strength. The pulley shall be mounted in the fixture as shown on figure 6
in such a manner as to permit rotation. The load specified in table VIII for the particular size
pulley under test shall be applied gradually by means of a pressure plate of the size specified in
table VIII. The maximum load shall be maintained for not less than 10 seconds. During the test,
the pulley shall receive no side support from the fixture. Failure of bearing under this test shall
not be cause for rejection of the pulley.

4.5.11 Non-afterglow, type I. Type I nonmetallic pulleys shall be clamped in a support,

and a Bunsen burner or an alcohol lamp with blue flame 0.5 to 0.75-inch high, shall be placed
under the sheave so the flame tip contacts the edge of one flange. After 30 seconds, the flame
shall be removed. After removal of the flame, sufficient airblast to extinguish the blaze from 1
to 2 seconds shall be applied. Eight to 10 seconds later the airblast shall again be applied. There
shall be no afterglow or bleeding of the non-afterglow additive. The test shall be repeated on the
same area. There shall be no afterglow or bleeding of the non-afterglow additive.

6. NOTES

(This section contains information of a general or explanatory nature that may be helpful,
but is not mandatory.)

6.1 Intended use. These pulleys are used in aircraft applications, such as, control
systems and brake installations. These military unique parts of aircraft control and brake
systems require interoperability and compatibility with associated components and equipment.
This interoperability and compatibility has been assured through the strict adherence to military
requirements which contain substantial detail. The detail assures item standardization and
compatibility through specific dimensions and tolerances in the MIL-DTL-7034 specification
sheets and material control requirements in this specification. The qualification process ensures
these items will meet the flame resistance, and -65 ºF to 250 ºF, temperature requirements, and
perform as specified in the environments to which they may be subjected. Users and prime
equipment manufacturers depend on these detailed technical requirements to ensure delivered
product meets the interoperablility and compatibility requirements.

6.2 Acquisition requirements. Acquisition documents should specify the following:

a. Title, number, and date of the specification.

b. Type pulley and quantities required.
c. Number of allowable defects (see 4.4.2.1).
d. Packaging requirements (see 5.1).

6.3 Qualification. With respect to products requiring qualification, awards will be made
only for products that are, at the time of award of contract, qualified for inclusion in QPL-7034
whether or not such products have actually been so listed by that date. The attention of
contractors is called to these requirements, and manufacturers are urged to arrange to have the
products that they propose to offer to the Federal Government tested for qualification in order
that they may be eligible to be awarded contracts or orders for the products covered by this
specification. Information pertaining to qualification of products may be obtained from Defense
Supply Center Richmond, ATTN: DSCR-VEB, 8000 Jefferson Davis Highway, Richmond, VA
