Key stock is used to create keyed shaft connections between rotating components such as gears, pulleys, sprockets, and couplings. This bar measures 0.5 inches high, 0.5 inches wide, and 36 inches long, giving machinists and maintenance techs enough length to cut multiple keys from a single piece. W-1 tool steel offers good hardness after water quenching and adequate toughness for general-purpose keying applications in industrial drive systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis key stock is suited for use in machine shops, maintenance repair operations, and light industrial drive-train assemblies. It is appropriate for applications where a keyed shaft connection must transmit torque reliably without slippage. The 36-inch bar length allows field or shop cutting to the finished key length required by the specific shaft and hub combination. Licensed machinists and industrial maintenance technicians are the typical installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eW-1 water-hardening tool steel construction for good surface hardness after heat treatment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSquare 0.5 by 0.5 inch cross-section fits standard keyway dimensions for that shaft size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e36-inch bar length provides stock for multiple cut-to-length keys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight, unfinished bar stock allows custom fitting to specific shaft and hub tolerances\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeneral-purpose keying application suitable for gears, pulleys, sprockets, and couplings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as standard key stock for keyed shaft connections requiring a 0.5-inch square cross-section bar in W-1 tool steel; verify keyway dimensions against shaft and hub specifications before cutting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a machinist or qualified industrial maintenance technician. Always de-energize and lock out the drive system before removing or installing key stock. Cut the bar to the required finished length using appropriate metal-cutting equipment and deburr all edges before fitting into the keyway. Do not force an oversized key into a keyway, as this can damage the shaft or hub.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tool Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Specification\u003c\/strong\u003e: W-1 Water Hardening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 36 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.55 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31163208\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 06061329\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51711736414514,"sku":"06061329","price":125.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6396a1ae8da09af8291f1a442814e025.jpg?v=1788479048","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-06061329-key-stock-tool-steel-w-1","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
