You may want to look into "Shaftloc"; they appear similar to what you're describing.
If you use the SDP/SI Fairloc hub, be sure to check the specs and do the math for their torque carrying capability. The FTC team that I mentor used them and ended up having to drill and pin the pullies so that they wouldn't slip. The specific application for us was 6mm steel round and D shafts with an aluminum fairloc hub. Both types of interfaces slipped, all of them had to be pinned. The chart that shows the specs isn't particularly easy to find, but it's definitely important to check it out.
