Antique Cast Iron Window Sash Pulley

Description :
These antique cast iron sash pulleys were originally installed in double-hung window frames as part of a counterweight system. Each pulley features a durable cast iron housing with a machined steel wheel, designed to guide the sash cord smoothly as it connected to a hidden sash weight. The two mounting holes allow for secure installation within the side jamb of the window. With their authentic aged patina, these pulleys are well-suited for historic home restoration or repurposing into functional industrial design projects.
