Additional information
This Hi-Pro key, part number 714-0113, fits into the shaft keyway to lock pulleys, gears, or sprockets in place so rotational force transfers without slipping. Proper fit helps maintain accurate alignment and consistent power transfer.
If a driven component slips on the shaft, chatters under load, or fails to move even though the shaft turns, the key may be sheared, worn, or missing. Deformation or rounding of the key edges can also prevent a secure fit.
Before starting the repair, disconnect the power source appropriate for your equipment to prevent accidental operation. Seat the key fully in the keyway, align the mating component carefully, and secure all fasteners so the assembly locks firmly in place.
