  2. Key (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_(engineering)

    Square keys are used for smaller shafts and rectangular faced keys are used for shaft diameters over 6.5 in (170 mm) or when the wall thickness of the mating hub is an issue. Set screws often accompany parallel keys to lock the mating parts into place. [3] The keyway is a longitudinal slot in both the shaft and mating part.

  3. Keyway - Wikipedia

    Keyway may refer to: A part of a keyed joint used to connect a rotating machine element to a shaft; see key (engineering) A keyhole , a hole or aperture (as in a door or lock) for receiving a key; see lock and key

  4. Adjustable spanner - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adjustable_spanner

    An adjustable spanner (UK and most other English-speaking countries), also called a shifting spanner (Australia and New Zealand) [1] or adjustable wrench (US and Canada), [a] is any of various styles of spanner (wrench) with a movable jaw, allowing it to be used with different sizes of fastener head (nut, bolt, etc.) rather than just one fastener size, as with a conventional fixed spanner.

  5. Spline (mechanical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spline_(mechanical)

    For instance, a gear mounted on a shaft might use a male spline on the shaft that matches the female spline on the gear. Adjacent images in the section below show a transmission input shaft with male splines and a clutch plate with mating female splines in the center hub, where the smooth tip of the axle would be supported in a pilot bearing in ...

  6. GM 10.5-inch 14-bolt differential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GM_10.5-inch_14-bolt...

    Its nomenclature, "14-bolt," represents the 14 bolts securing the differential cover, although the ring gear itself is fastened by 12 bolts. Notably, the 14-bolt differential gained traction among Jeep Wrangler owners seeking axle replacement options, [ 2 ] earning the moniker "corporate" 14-bolt because of its association with GM's corporate ...

  7. Broaching (metalworking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broaching_(metalworking)

    Broaching is often impossible without the specific broaching or keyway machines unless you have a system that can be used in conjunction with a modern machining centre or driven tooling lathe; these extra bits of equipment open up the possibility of producing keyways, splines and Torx through one-hit machining. [20]

  8. Kwikset - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kwikset

    During the Korean War, demand plummeted, but the company took a risk, producing more goods than they could sell. When demand surged after the war, their ability to supply goods from the earlier manufactured stock cemented a position as the largest United States supplier of locks. [2] Rhinehart retired in 1952.

  9. Shaft (mechanical engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaft_(mechanical_engineering)

    The following stresses are induced in the shafts. Shear stresses due to the transmission of torque (due to torsional load). Bending stresses (tensile or compressive) due to the forces acting upon the machine elements like gears and pulleys as well as the self weight of the shaft. Stresses due to combined torsional and bending loads.
