John Landstrom Posted July 14, 2023 Posted July 14, 2023 (edited) Anyone know the correct size of the U-Drive screws for this model? I need them to attach a new motor tag. Oh, they’re silver color so the either steel or aluminum is my guess. Along with a motor tag there is another tag on the base that needs 2 brass ones. (It’s not the curved ID tag, it was one added by the government) Where to buy would be nice too. (McMaster Carr?). A 7/64” drill bit fits the hole. Looked up drive screws it appears to be a #5, but may be a #4. Anyone out there know? I actually need just a few, say 6 for the motor tag in steel, and 4 for another tag in brass. Any Emerson folks out there have any? Edited July 16, 2023 by John Landstrom Quote
John Landstrom Posted July 29, 2023 Author Posted July 29, 2023 Bumping this…..someone has got to know this info, or may have a few spares they could part with. They’re silver/steel. Also - Anyone have a couple of the “T” shaped cotter pins for attaching the worm drive to the rotor shaft ? Quote
Steve Cunningham Posted July 29, 2023 Posted July 29, 2023 Use a brass round head Brad. Type U Drive Screws are steel. Very hard to remove. Quote

Hmmm….didn’t know that. There was no tag on this motor but the original drive screws were still in the motor. I tapped the out from the inside with a small 90 degree scribing tool. I’m wondering how brass would look with the silver/black motor tag…but, then again, I could always touch them up with some black paint. You wouldn’t happen to know what the size is would ya ? (In case I muck them up trying to reinstall them with the new tag Ron should be making soon. Quote
Steve Cunningham Posted July 31, 2023 Posted July 31, 2023 I don’t know what size. U Drive Screws were used to hold tags in equipment that were very hard to remove. On a fan it only needs to hold on a thin motor tag. I bet the pins come in zinc plated. Quote
