Key Parallel Plain 3/16 X 3/16 3/4 8630 RC40-50
The Key Parallel Plain 3/16" x 3/16" 3/4" 8630 RC40-50 is a precision-engineered mechanical component designed for various industrial applications that require secure and accurate coupling or connection between rotating components. This specific key is meticulously crafted from 8630 steel, a low-alloy steel known for its exceptional strength, toughness, and wear resistance.
Measuring 3/16" in width and 3/16" in height, with a total length of 3/4", this key conforms to industry-standard dimensions, making it compatible with a wide range of machinery and equipment. Its parallel plain design ensures consistent distribution of load and torque, contributing to enhanced durability and reduced wear on connected parts.
The key's material, 8630 steel, is heat-treated to achieve a hardness of RC40-50 on the Rockwell C scale. This level of hardness strikes a balance between being rigid enough to transmit high levels of torque without shearing or deformation while maintaining a certain degree of flexibility to absorb shocks and vibrations. This is particularly crucial in applications that involve fluctuating loads or dynamic forces.
