are you guys using these deadaxle on the intermediates in your Arm's gear train. If so, try to bolt the two gears together with a long screw. Because I remember you guys saying they kept failing at the competition, meaning that one would no longer turn the other, if they were physically bolted together and the clamps "failed", but still remained physically attached, as long as they kept in the proper place in allignment, then you wouldn't have to worry about them fail. You could juts put a shaft collar at each end of the axel to hold the gears on the axel.
