Axial run-out The difference between the minimum and maximum distance between the face
of a pulley and a plane perpendicular to the pulley shaft (Figure 10 , item 1). Incorrect instal-
lation or damage can cause a pulley to be not at a 90 degree angle to the shaft.
Radial run-out The difference between the minimum and maximum diameter in one turn (Fig-
ure 10 , item 2). If a force causes damage to a pulley, it can bend. It will not have a circular
shape.

Legend
1. Axial run-out. This pulley is bent or not perpendicular to the shaft. This condition must not be more than 1 mil
for each inch (0.1 mm for each dm) of the pulley diameter.
2. Radial run-out. This pulley is not circular. This condition must be less than 10 mils (0.25 mm).
