Re: How to attach Bevel Gears to shaft when they are not keyed or have set screws
This will be our second year running with the plain bore bevel gears.

We just use 1/8" roll pins to attach the bevel to an axle.
Roll pins can be found here

If you really want to use a set screw, you can purchase those from McMaster as well. On the page with bevel gears. Part number 6843K11 or 7655K1 for a 3/8" axle.
