Amana-Goodman B1368016S Blower Wheel
The Amana-Goodman B1368016S Blower Wheel is a critical OEM replacement part designed for high-static pressure applications in residential HVAC blowers. Measuring 10" x 8", this double-inlet blower wheel features a 1/2-inch bore and uses a convex hub configuration to ensure precise alignment with the motor shaft. Constructed from heavy-duty galvanized steel, it is engineered to maintain structural integrity during high-RPM cycles, preventing the blade distortion common in aftermarket alternatives. This Goodman blower wheel is essential for restoring proper CFM delivery and system efficiency in compatible Amana, Goodman, Kenmore, and Xenon furnaces and air handlers. By replacing a warped or unbalanced B1368016 wheel, technicians can eliminate excessive vibration and prevent premature motor bearing failure. This direct-drive component ensures the air distribution system meets original factory specifications for static pressure and airflow velocity across the heat exchanger or evaporator coil.
