FWIW, your terminology is a bit off.

There are a number of ways to secure a pulley to the shaft (provided you want a live axle). You can go with the way smclean suggested, broaching a keyway into the shaft and then using a key to hold it in place. Alternatively, you could file flats onto the shaft and use set screws to hold it in place (most pulleys come with set screws).
