This 9\" x 6\" wheel is responsible for pulling air through the return ducts and pushing it across the heat exchanger or cooling coil for distribution. Specifically designed for \u003cstrong\u003eGoodman, Amana, and Janitrol\u003c\/strong\u003e furnace and air handler series, this wheel features a specialized narrow 6-inch profile to fit small-tonnage cabinets. As a genuine OEM component, it is factory-balanced to eliminate vibration, ensuring your blower motor remains protected from shaft oscillation and your system maintains factory-rated airflow (CFM) performance in tight configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features and Function:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrecision Airflow Management:\u003c\/strong\u003e Optimized blade geometry designed for clockwise (CW) rotation to provide consistent static pressure in narrow-profile blower assemblies.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenuine OEM Reliability\/Fitment:\u003c\/strong\u003e Direct-fit replacement for Goodman 9-inch diameter housings, ensuring the hub depth and bore size align perfectly with the original motor.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAcoustically Balanced Build:\u003c\/strong\u003e Each wheel is precision-weighted with metal clips at the factory to eliminate the \"thumping\" or \"droning\" noises common in unbalanced blower wheels.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeavy-Duty Galvanized Steel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Constructed from high-grade, rust-resistant galvanized steel for long-term durability in both heating and high-humidity cooling environments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Details and Key Specifications:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e B1368042S (Replaces B1368042, B13680-42)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Goodman \/ Amana (Genuine OEM)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Centrifugal Blower Wheel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9 Inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6 Inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRotation:\u003c\/strong\u003e CW (Clockwise) Facing the Hub\/Motor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBore Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/2\" Hub (Standard Motor Shaft)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Galvanized Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShipping Weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.8 lbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e🛠️ HVAC Depot Pro Tip: The Hub Alignment\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen installing the \u003cstrong\u003eB1368042S wheel\u003c\/strong\u003e, ensure the wheel is centered within the blower housing before tightening the set screw. If the wheel is offset too far to one side, it will \"rub\" against the housing, creating a loud metal-on-metal screeching sound and potentially burning out the motor. During your \u003cstrong\u003eDiagnostic Check\u003c\/strong\u003e, always inspect the old wheel for missing \"balance clips.\" If a clip has fallen off, the resulting vibration will destroy the motor bearings in a matter of weeks.
