Tim Babcock Posted June 23, 2023 Posted June 23, 2023 I have a Hunter fan AOU I am working on. I would like to find out its manufacture date. Its a two wire head, Is an AOU set up with integral handle. The cage is not the standard AOU the badge says Hunter Century. After tearing it down, it is either made of pot metal or aluminum. Not sure which one. So far on the tear down I have every thing apart and no catastrophic issues. I tore down one Century pot metal fan it it was an exercise in futility. Junk fan that crumbled in my hands. Quote
Russ Huber Posted June 24, 2023 Posted June 24, 2023 In 1936 Hunter purchased the Century fan motor division. The Fulton to Memphis move was 46. Quote
Tim Babcock Posted June 24, 2023 Author Posted June 24, 2023 So was this fan made of pot metal or aluminum? Its not magnetic at all. I have been real careful with it so far so good. Quote
