Product Specifications

Replacement Cable Sheave for Dragon Roll-Off Trailers

Dragon roll-off trailers and container-handling equipment are used in demanding commercial hauling applications.

Cable-operated roll-off trailer systems rely on sheaves to guide wire rope through the loading and unloading mechanism.

This 10" OD x 2" ID bronze-bushed cable sheave is intended for compatible Dragon equipment requiring the same pulley dimensions, cable groove, and mounting configuration.

Common applications include:

• Dragon roll-off trailer cable systems

• Dragon T-plate and slide-plate pulley assemblies

• Commercial roll-off dumpster transportation

• Construction and demolition debris hauling

• Recycling and scrap material transportation

• Industrial container-handling equipment

• Roll-off trailer maintenance and repair

• Replacement of worn or damaged cable sheaves

Important: Not every Dragon roll-off trailer uses the same sheave size or mounting arrangement. Verify the required pulley dimensions before ordering.

Why Choose a Bronze-Bushed Cable Sheave?

Roll-off cable sheaves rotate around mounting shafts or pins while guiding wire rope through the equipment's cable system.

These components experience repeated rotation, changing cable loads, and exposure to dirt, moisture, and demanding operating conditions.

A bronze-bushed sheave provides a bearing surface between the rotating pulley and the mounting shaft.

When properly installed and lubricated, this design can provide several benefits:

• Reduced Friction: Bronze serves as a suitable bearing material against a compatible mounting shaft.

• Reduced Shaft Wear: The bushing helps prevent direct contact between the sheave body and the mounting pin.

• Improved Lubrication: Grease grooves help distribute lubricant across the intended bearing surfaces.

• Smoother Rotation: Proper lubrication and alignment can help reduce binding and resistance.

• Maintenance Benefits: Routine inspection and lubrication can help maintain the sheave's operating condition.

Actual service life depends on operating loads, cable alignment, shaft condition, lubrication, and maintenance.

Signs Your Roll-Off Cable Sheave Needs Replacement

A worn or damaged cable sheave can interfere with wire rope movement and contribute to premature cable wear.

Common warning signs include:

• Excessive wear or uneven surfaces in the cable groove

• Cracks, chips, or damaged sheave flanges

• Binding or restricted rotation

• Excessive movement around the mounting shaft

• Worn or damaged bronze bushings

• Corrosion or inadequate lubrication

• Abnormal cable tracking

• Premature or uneven wire rope wear

Inspect the wire rope, mounting shaft, retaining hardware, and surrounding components whenever replacing a sheave.

Damaged components should be evaluated and replaced as necessary before returning the equipment to service.

How to Measure Your Dragon Replacement Cable Sheave

Before ordering, compare the replacement sheave with the pulley currently installed on your Dragon equipment.

1. Outside Diameter

Measure across the outer edges of the sheave. This replacement has a 10-inch outside diameter.

2. Inside Diameter

Measure the finished center bore. This sheave has a 2-inch inside diameter.

3. Center Bushing

Compare your existing sheave's bearing arrangement with the bronze-bushed center on this replacement.

4. Cable Groove Profile

Verify that the groove width, depth, and shape are suitable for your existing wire rope.

5. Overall Sheave Width

Confirm the pulley fits within the available mounting space between your T-plate or slide-plate components.

6. Mounting Pin and Hardware

Check the mounting shaft diameter, spacers, retainers, and associated hardware.

7. Replacement Part Number

Confirm your equipment requires Dragon 805-0052 or a verified equivalent.

Important: Matching outside diameter and bore size alone does not guarantee fitment. Always compare the overall width, cable groove, and mounting configuration.
