Re: 5/8 keyed shaft trouble
The edges of the shaft could have be knurled. This usually happens when you drop the shaft on its end. When this happens the end actually mushrooms and becomes bigger. This results in a shaft that does not fit. Also, since your bearings are getting stuck on the shaft at certain areas that means the shaft has burs on it. Take a piece of emery cloth to it. Do not use sandpaper. That will make the problem worst. Also since emery cloth is designed to take material away from the shaft do not do it too much.
