Dayton 2M517 Motor Mounting Base
The Dayton 2M517 is a steel motor mounting base designed for securing NEMA 326 frame motors in blower and HVAC installations. It provides a stable, adjustable platform that helps maintain proper belt tension and alignment during operation.
Adjustable Steel Base with Two Bolts
Two adjusting bolts allow precise positioning of the motor to achieve correct belt tension without removing the base. The steel construction resists vibration and distortion under load, while the black finish protects against corrosion in industrial environments.
Check NEMA Frame Size and Mounting Footprint
Verify that the motor carries a NEMA 326 frame designation before ordering. Confirm the available installation space can accommodate the base overall length of 22 3/4 in and overall width of 20 3/4 in with 2 1/2 in height clearance. Buyers who need a different frame size or a base with more adjusting bolts should select another model.
