Hello everybody,
This is my first post here and I was wondering if somebody could help me with an issue I'm having.
I need to connect two hollow shafts together. The main problems that I am having are:
1)One is made from steel and the other aluminium.
2)They have a different outer diameter and inner diameter (therefore won't fit without some kind of insert).
The dimensions are as follows:
Steel piece - Inside dia = 19mm
- Outside dia = 27.1mm
- Length 25mm
Aluminium piece - Inside dia = 6.8mm
- Outside dia = 15.9mm
- Length = 24mm
I had an idea to make a type of bushing insert that I could then secure inside the steel piece. To secure it I thought I could either shrink fit it in, it with something like Loctite 638, or a combination of both. The aluminium shaft could be welded to the insert if it was made from aluminium.
The torque on the shaft will be around 20Nm so this is also something that needs to be considered.
Thank you for any help you can provide
Jon
