Re: Mounting gears
When you're dealing with gears, sprockets, etc. in high torque applications you need to secure the gear from slipping on the shaft with a key. If you are talking about the BaneBots CIM gearboxes, the output shaft has a 1/8" key, so you will need a gear with a 1/8" keyway. If you can't find one, you will have to get one without a keyway and cut one yourself.
Key can be found at McMaster, just search for 1/8" key stock.
