Hi all,
I've got what may be a silly question, or, maybe it's important.
I have a 3/4" steel shaft with a 3/16" woodruff key in it. I'm installing a cast iron 9" diameter V belt pulley on the shaft and the setscrew lands on the woodruff key.
I've only used normal square keys. Is a woodruff key ok with a set screw on it or is this asking for a failure?
Oddly enough this pulley only has the 1 setscrew also, not the typical 2.
Expected torque on shaft and key is roughly 60ftlbs @ 1400 rpm.
