7. Spline (mechanical) - Wikipedia

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

   Disc brake mounting interfaces that are splined include Centerlock, by Shimano. Aircraft engines may have a spline upon which mounts the propeller. There may be a master spline which is wider than the others, so that the propeller may go on at only one orientation, to maintain dynamic balance. This arrangement is commonly found in larger ...
