Description / Abstract:
This Standard covers requirements for square and rectangular
parallel keys and keyways intended for both alignment of shafts and
hubs, and transmitting torque between shafts and hubs.
Keys covered by this Standard have a relatively loose width
tolerance. All width tolerances are positive. Keys with minus width
tolerances and a smaller tolerance range are covered by ASME B
18.25.lM.
The inclusion of dimensional data in this Standard is not
intended to imply that all sizes described are production stock
items. Consumers should consult with suppliers concerning lists of
stock items.
