Value Collection 33974 Oversized Key Stock 1/8 X 1/8 X 12 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 33974 is an oversized key stock bar used to create positive drive connections between shafts and mating components such as gears, pulleys, and sprockets. Manufactured from cold drawn steel with a zinc-plated finish, this key stock measures 0.125 inches high by 0.125 inches wide by 12 inches long. The cold drawn process produces tight dimensional tolerances and a smooth surface finish, making it suitable for precision power-transmission applications. The zinc plating provides a baseline level of corrosion resistance during storage and service. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians cut it to the required length to fit standard keyways.

This oversized key stock is intended for use in light-duty industrial and mechanical power-transmission assemblies where a keyed shaft connection is required. Typical applications include small electric motor shafts, pump drives, conveyor components, and HVAC fan shaft assemblies. Because it is sold in a 12-inch bar, one piece can yield multiple keys depending on the hub length required. Sold individually per piece with a minimum order quantity of 5 pieces.

Key Features

• Oversized key stock type for standard keyway fitment with positive shaft engagement
• Cold drawn steel construction provides consistent dimensional tolerances and surface finish
• Zinc-plated finish offers baseline corrosion resistance for storage and service environments
• 12-inch length allows a single bar to be cut to multiple job-specific key lengths
• 0.125 inches x 0.125 inches cross-section suits small-shaft power-transmission applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard oversized key stock replacement for shaft and hub assemblies requiring a 0.125-inch square key profile across industrial, mechanical, and HVAC power-transmission applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a machinist or maintenance technician. De-energize all rotating equipment and lock out and tag out the drive before removing or installing key stock. Cut the bar to the required length using a metal-cutting saw or grinder and deburr all edges before fitting to avoid keyway damage. Follow applicable machinery safety standards when working on shaft and hub assemblies.
