Re: Securing Machine Keys
You can put a small tack from a welder on either side of the key in certain applications (but cover the keyway to avoid spatter).
We have in times past mangled the keyway with a chisel on either side of the key, thus preventing the key from sliding loose. It never failed us, but there are generally better ways to do things.
