Titan 448-221 Engine Pulley
OEM Titan Drive Component
Titan 448-221 Engine Pulley is an OEM crankshaft-mounted pulley that transfers power from the engine to the pump drive system via a V-belt on compatible PowrTwin and PowrLiner sprayer models.
Compatibility Overview
Precision-machined grooves ensure proper V-belt alignment and maximum contact area, minimizing belt slippage and maintaining correct pump speed and pressure output. A worn, bent, or corroded pulley causes belt slippage, squealing, loss of pressure, and unusual vibration. OEM replacement restores reliable power transmission.

Titan 448-221 Engine Pulley for PowrTwin & PowrLiner Drive Systems
Titan 448-221 is an OEM engine pulley designed to transfer power from the engine to the pump drive system on compatible PowrTwin and PowrLiner sprayer systems. This crankshaft-mounted pulley is a critical component in the drive train, transferring rotational power from the gasoline engine to the pump via a V-belt, enabling the pump to pressurize coating material for demanding industrial and pavement marking applications. The pulley is manufactured from high-strength materials with precision-machined grooves designed to match the specific V-belt used in these systems, providing maximum contact area and minimizing belt slippage. It may be keyed to the crankshaft and secured with a setscrew or bolt. It is documented as a key component in the PowrTwin 4900XLT Gas Convertokit and PowrTwin 4500 Gas Convertokits, working alongside the Titan 980-332A Honda Gas Engine, 424-285 AX-27 Grip Notch Belt, and 980-307 Drive Key. The pulley is subjected to high rotational speeds, continuous loads, and potential corrosion. Failure modes include groove wear from belt friction, keyway damage, imbalance, and corrosion. Symptoms of a worn or damaged pulley include belt slippage, squealing, loss of pressure, and unusual vibration. This genuine OEM replacement restores proper power transmission and ensures reliable operation. Always confirm fitment using the correct parts diagram for your exact model and serial number, as engine pulley configurations vary across sprayer platforms.
