Common Uses and Sectors: Key Steel

Key steel might be small, but it has huge importance across many industries and applications. You’ll find these little bars wherever rotating machinery is in use. In general engineering workshops and maintenance shops, key steel is a staple for assembling or repairing equipment, from securing sprockets on a shaft in a factory machine, to fixing the flywheel key in a motor or engine.

Motor repair shops and mechanics regularly use square and rectangular key steel to replace worn keys in vehicle transmissions, pumps, and gearboxes. In the heavy machinery sector and agricultural equipment, large key bars keep wheels, gears, and couplings locked in place on tractors, harvesters, mining conveyors and industrial gearboxes, transmitting high torque loads reliably.
