Adjustable Steel Motor Base NEMA 364
The Dayton 2M518 is an adjustable steel motor base designed for NEMA 364 frame motors. It provides a stable mounting platform with two adjusting bolts for precise belt tensioning. The base measures 25 1/2 inches in length, 20 1/2 inches in width and 2 1/2 inches in height. It comes in a black finish suitable for industrial environments.
Ideal for HVAC blower installations requiring NEMA
This base suits maintenance technicians and plant engineers aligning motors on blower assemblies. It is not for installations using different NEMA frame sizes or those needing more than two adjustment points. Buyers without imperial tooling for the stated dimensions should verify fitment first.
Critical spec: NEMA 364 frame compatibility
The single specification that decides fit is the NEMA 364 frame designation. Only motors built to this exact frame standard will bolt correctly to the adjusting slots. Confirm the motor nameplate matches NEMA 364 before ordering to avoid alignment issues.

Questions about this item
How does the NEMA 364 frame size affect which motors can be mounted on this base?
The base is built to match the NEMA 364 frame standard, so any motor with that frame designation will align with the mounting pattern.
What does the adjustable design with two bolts allow you to do during installation?
Two adjusting bolts let you slide the motor to tension the belt, then lock it in place without shims.
Will the 25 1/2 by 20 1/2 inch footprint fit inside my existing blower cabinet?
The base measures 25 1/2 inches long by 20 1/2 inches wide and stands 2 1/2 inches tall, so compare those dimensions to your cabinet opening.
