You are going to want to support these shafts from both sides... seriously, they WILL bend if only support one side, especially when you are using them on the drive train where a lot of forces go through.

And even with the hardened one's, you want to watch the size of the pin comparing to the size of the shaft. You don't want the diameter of the pin bigger then 1/3 diameter of the shaft, or that will weaken the structure of the shaft a lot... I really go against using pins on those shafts. We usually shafts like these when we want our wheels spinning freely on them, and a chain system to drive the wheel instead of direct powering from the shaft to the wheel.
