Key stock is the raw material used to fabricate drive keys that lock rotating components — such as pulleys, sprockets, and gears — onto shafts in power transmission assemblies. This piece ships as a pack of six plain-finish bars, giving technicians and machinists ready stock to cut custom-length keys in the field or shop. Hardness is rated at Rockwell B80-90, a range consistent with ASTM A108 cold-drawn carbon steel bar stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMill stock key stock is used wherever a standard square key seat is required. Common applications include industrial conveyor drives, pump and fan shaft assemblies, gearbox output shafts, and general mechanical power transmission setups in commercial and light industrial facilities. The 3\/8-inch square cross-section fits shaft and hub keyways sized for 3\/8-inch square keys per standard keying practice. Each bar is 12 inches long, providing enough stock to yield multiple shorter keys depending on the specific shaft application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLow-carbon steel to ASTM A108 specification for consistent machinability and reliable shear strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRockwell B80-90 hardness suitable for standard power transmission key applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 x 3\/8 x 12-inch square mill stock — ready to cut to required key length\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlain finish — no coating to interfere with close-tolerance keyway fits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePack of 6 bars for shop stock replenishment or multi-shaft jobs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard mill stock replacement for 3\/8-inch square keyway applications in general industrial and commercial power transmission assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKey stock installation is typically performed by millwrights, machinists, or maintenance mechanics. Cut the bar to the required key length using a bandsaw, cutoff wheel, or mill, then deburr all edges before fitting. Shut down and lock out the drive system completely before removing or installing any shaft keys. Verify keyway dimensions in both the shaft and hub before cutting to length to ensure proper fit and avoid stress concentrations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKey Stock Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Mill Stock\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Low-Carbon Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Specification\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM A108\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness\u003c\/strong\u003e: Rockwell B80-90\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plain\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pieces\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.87 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31163208\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: PRECISION BRAND\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 56505\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION BRAND","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51539117244722,"sku":"56505","price":50.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c563927ad3d631985929c02dd95012fb.jpg?v=1785834899","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-brand-56505-mill-stock-key-stock-3-8x3-8x12-in-6pc","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
