Re: Hex vs. Key
Quote:
The keyway in a shaft is a stress concentrator, which significantly reduces the strength of the shaft, especially its resistance to breaking under shock loads. Keyways are popular 'cause they're easy, and using a 5/8" shaft where a 3/8" will do isn't an issue if weight is not a consideration.
