Value Collection C676412 Oversized Key Stock 12 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION C676412 is an oversized key stock bar used to transmit torque between a shaft and a mating hub, gear, pulley, or sprocket. Manufactured from cold drawn steel with a plain finish, this key stock measures 0.75 inches high by 0.75 inches wide by 12 inches long. The cold drawing process produces consistent dimensional tolerances and a smooth surface that seats reliably in standard keyways. Machinists and maintenance technicians commonly cut this bar stock to length on the job, making it a practical solution for both new installations and field repairs on rotating shaft assemblies.

This key stock is suited for industrial and commercial power-transmission applications where an oversized cross-section is required. Typical use cases include keying shafts on motors, gearboxes, conveyors, fans, and pumps. The 12-inch length allows a single piece to be cut down into multiple shorter keys as needed, reducing waste and inventory overhead in shops and maintenance facilities.

Key Features

• Oversized cross-section at 0.75 inches high by 0.75 inches wide for heavy-duty torque transmission
• Cold drawn steel construction delivers tight dimensional tolerances and consistent surface quality
• Plain finish compatible with standard keyway fits without additional surface prep
• 12-inch length can be cut to custom lengths in the field or shop
• Sold individually, allowing single-piece procurement for repair and replacement jobs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or aftermarket key stock for rotating shaft assemblies requiring an oversized 0.75-inch by 0.75-inch key profile in motors, gearboxes, pulleys, sprockets, and similar power-transmission components.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a machinist or industrial maintenance technician. Shut down and lock out all power to rotating equipment before removing or installing key stock, following LOTO procedures per OSHA 1910.147. Cut the key stock to the required length using a cold saw or bandsaw and deburr all cut edges before seating in the keyway. Verify keyway dimensions and fit before final assembly to ensure proper torque transmission without excessive play.
