Customer Reviews for New 1.5Hp Electric Motor 56 Frame Single Phase TEFC 3450RPM 115/230V 121556

It's a standard electric motor. Made in Asia of course. Used this on a 2x72 belt sander. More than enough horse power needed.

I don't normally write reviews, if it works as advertised, it's supposed to. However, the wiring diagram on this particular motor is either incorrect or the wire labels are. I had to reverse wires T5 and T8 to get the proper rotation in my case CW. Word to the wise, test the rotation prior to tidying it up and mounting. The motor is quiet and powerful for now. Just installed it so longevity testing is on going. The mounting plate was pretty bent up but no biggie. It is a replacement for my Craftsman 10" table saw. Hope this helps.

The OEM Craftsman motor gave up the ghost in the most stupid fashion, the shaft bent from snugging up the drive belt. Humming began, then intermittent start. Then finally, no start. Hum. Hmm. Took the thing apart and saw the commutator rubbing on the armature or whatever the guts are called.This is the PERFECT FIT and at 1.5 HP, I also bought the steel pulley for 5/8 shaft. That pulley is found here on Amazon. It is steel, has two set screws, and it comes with the square key stock, not a real 'woodruff key' since those have a curved side. That pulley is perfect too for this motor.Exact mount. Perfect.You will need a power cord so buy a new one, 14 gauge triple with the grounded plug 'for tools'. Then you will need a cord clamp / sheath cable connector with the screws so you can mount the cord and anchor it through the knock-outs on the motor's connection box. You will also need two wire nuts and a terminal -- spade type -- for the ground. Get yourself a new belt too. My saw's replacement belt is a Gates PoweRated 6841 / Industry Number 4l410K (1/2" x 41") = 12.5 to 13 mm x 1040 mmTHIS HAS EASY TO READ WIRING INSTRUCTIONS on a double-sided, card stock, color printed document with all the models of single and three phase motors. You will easily be able to wire for 120 VAC or 230 VAC. Just read and take your time. If you're an old goat, put on your glasses.Only been running it a few days and if anything comes up, an update to the review will be posted.

Fast delivery nice brand new smoove works for me.

Seems very solid and heavy, not a cheap light weight toy...put on air compressor, runs on 110v, but want to switch to 220v. Arrived VERY WELL packaged, I was very impressed with how well it was protected for shipping!

Fit perfectly on ,y table saw

I was very satisfied with ease of ordering, fast shipping and an exact fit. I use the motor daily without worry.

Clean quite and runs smooth. Can wire for either direction. Packaged well. Seller was awesome with some mix ups on my end.

Seems to be a good running motor so far.

Works like it should. Good deal.
