KEY - WOODRUFF (Komatsu KO012470)

KO012470: A damaged woodruff key can cause a drive component to slip or fail, leading to unexpected downtime. During inspection, a woodruff key may show signs of wear or shearing under load. This aftermarket replacement part references the Komatsu catalog and carries the part number KO012470. The woodruff key's plain mechanical function is to positively locate and transmit torque between a shaft and a hub. A concrete generic failure consequence is that a worn key can allow the hub to rotate independently, resulting in loss of power transmission. Keeping a woodruff key in sound condition helps maintain proper alignment of rotating assemblies. Verify the serial number or application, then call (562) 693-7748.
