Value Collection 33960 Undersized Key Stock 1/8x1/8x12 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 33960 is an undersized key stock bar used to secure rotating components such as gears, pulleys, and sprockets to shafts in mechanical power transmission assemblies. Measuring 1/8 inch high by 1/8 inch wide by 12 inches long, this key stock is manufactured from cold drawn steel and carries a plain finish. The undersized designation means the bar is dimensioned slightly below nominal to allow controlled fit in standard keyways. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians use this type of stock when building or repairing drive assemblies across industrial and commercial equipment.

This key stock is suited for light-duty shaft-to-hub connections in machinery found in manufacturing, processing, and general mechanical maintenance environments. The 12-inch length allows the bar to be cut to the required segment length for the application at hand. Cold drawn steel provides consistent dimensional tolerances and adequate shear strength for standard keyed joint applications. It is sold individually per piece, with a minimum order quantity of 5 pieces.

Key Features

• Undersized profile provides controlled clearance fit in standard keyways
• Cold drawn steel construction delivers consistent dimensional tolerances
• Plain finish suitable for standard mechanical assembly without additional surface treatment
• 12-inch length allows on-site cutting to required key length
• 1/8 inch by 1/8 inch cross-section for light-duty shaft locking applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard undersized key stock replacement for light-duty keyed shaft and hub assemblies requiring a 1/8 inch by 1/8 inch cross-section keyway.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a machinist or millwright as part of shaft assembly or drive component repair. De-energize and lock out all rotating equipment before removing or installing key stock. The bar should be cut to length using appropriate metal-cutting tools and deburred before fitting into the keyway. Ensure the mating keyway dimensions are clean and within tolerance before assembly.
