Lennox 86H46 Blower Wheel
As a direct OEM replacement for your furnace or air handler, the Lennox 86H46 Blower Wheel is engineered for high-performance air delivery in demanding HVACR applications. This 12" x 9 1/2" blower wheel features a 1/2" bore and is designed for clockwise (CW) rotation, ensuring precise compatibility with specific Lennox and Allied Air equipment, including air handler model EG6E100DC20-3. Constructed from durable galvanized steel with a convex hub and 54 individual blades, this component provides the structural integrity required to handle high static pressure without slipping or warping.
Replacing an imbalanced or failing HVAC blower fan is critical to preventing premature motor failure and excessive cabinet vibration. The Lennox 86H46 is professionally known as an identical match to R02592A013, as well as 20314202 and 86H4601. Whether you are performing a routine furnace blower wheel replacement or troubleshooting a noisy air handler, this centrifugal blower wheel ensures your system maintains the necessary CFM for efficient heating and cooling throughout the ductwork.

Common Questions
How do I confirm the rotation of my existing wheel?
Always view the rotation from the side opposite the hub/motor. This 86H46 wheel is CW (Clockwise). If your motor spins counter-clockwise, this wheel will not move air effectively.
Can I use this to replace a Morris Products R02592A013?
Yes, the Lennox 86H46 and Morrison Products R02592A013 are chemically and physically identical components often used interchangeably in Lennox-family brands.
What causes these wheels to fail?
The most common pain points are dust accumulation causing unbalance, or the center hub stripping away from the fins. If you notice systemic "hunting" or vibration, a full wheel replacement is required.
