Parallel keys

A Parallel key is a small but important part that is widely used in various mechanisms and structures. Due to their unique properties, keys perform a number of functions that make them an integral part of many technical solutions.

Parallel key functions

   - Creating a split connection: Keys are used to connect shafts, gears, bushings and other parts by inserting them into special grooves to create a secure connection.
   - Transmission of torque: A key transmits torque from one part to another, allowing them to rotate.
   - Reducing the load: In the event of excessive pressure or load, the key can shear off, protecting more expensive parts from breakage.
   - Preventing displacement: The key serves as a safety element, preventing parts from moving relative to each other.

Types of Parallel keys

They are prismatic, wedge, segmental, cylindrical, and tangential. Each type of key has its own unique properties and applications, which allows you to realize different types of connections.

1. Prismatic
They have a prismatic shape and are used to rigidly connect shafts and bushings. They are used in mechanical engineering and engineering structures to transmit torques.

2. V-bars
Shaped like a wedge, they are used to create a rigid connection under high loads. They are used in transmission systems and mechanisms to transmit heavy loads.

3. Segmental
They have a segmental shape and are used for dismountable connections. They are used in transportation and aviation systems for easy maintenance.

4. Cylindrical
Cylindrical in shape, used for precise positioning of shafts and bushings. Used in mechanical engineering to ensure accuracy and stability.

These are the main types of Parallel keys, each designed for specific working conditions. The choice depends on the load requirements and the need for disassembly.

Popular applications for Parallel key material

Parallel key materials are widely used in the mechanical engineering and automotive industries. It is in these industries that they are used to create reliable and efficient connections in the moving parts of mechanisms. They are also used in construction and furniture manufacturing. Installing dowels allows you to create stable structures and connections in a variety of wooden products.
