Lennox 17J62 Fan Blade

The Lennox 17J62 Fan Blade is a precision-engineered condenser fan blade designed for high-static pressure applications in residential and light commercial HVAC systems. Featuring a 16-inch diameter and a 34-degree pitch, this 5-blade aluminum assembly is optimized for maximum CFM delivery while maintaining low acoustic signatures during high-load cycles. This specific HVAC replacement fan blade utilizes a 1/2-inch bore for direct-drive motor shafts and operates with a Clockwise (CW) rotation. When performing a Lennox AC repair, it is critical to match the pitch and diameter exactly to ensure the motor operates within its rated amperage. This heavy-duty prop is built for durability in outdoor environments, resisting corrosion and maintaining structural balance to prevent premature bearing wear on the condenser motor. For technicians seeking a Lennox 17J62 replacement, this component ensures the thermal exchange efficiency of the coil is maintained at manufacturer specifications.

Key Benefits

• Enhanced Airflow Efficiency: The 34-degree pitch is calibrated to move high volumes of air across the condenser coils, preventing high-pressure trips.
• Precise Structural Balance: Factory-level balancing reduces vibration, extending the service life of both the motor and the mounting brackets.
• OEM Compatibility: Designed as a direct drop-in for specific Lennox outdoor units, ensuring no modifications to the motor lead or shroud are required.
• Corrosion Resistance: Engineered to withstand extreme temperature fluctuations and environmental exposure without losing blade integrity.

Common Questions

What happens if I install this blade with the wrong rotation?
Installing a CW blade in a CCW application will result in air being pulled the wrong direction, leading to immediate system overheating and potential compressor failure. Always verify motor rotation prior to installation.

Can I use a 1/2" to 5/8" bushing with this blade?
While bushings exist, we recommend using the native 1/2" bore size to maintain perfect concentricity and prevent high-speed wobbling that can occur with adapters.

Is the 34-degree pitch compatible with any 16-inch motor?
No, the pitch determines the load on the motor. You must ensure your motor's horsepower and RPM ratings can handle a 34-degree pitch to avoid overheating the windings.
