Another important thing to consider is minimum hub thickness, Filters which is calculated based on such factors as locking device outer diameter and surface pressure. The hub should be thicker than this value to prevent excess stress and early failure. Locking device manufacturers typically provide this formula.Andrew/Whittet-Higgins: Consider all costs of the assembly rather than the individual costs of each component.Keith/U.S. Tsubaki: Go keyless. Keys and splines Air weaken the shaft by cutting into it, requiring a larger shaft and accompanying parts, such as bearings, to handle the higher forces.End-user adviceWhat should END USERS do to maximize life and productivity?Carl/Ringfeder: Pay close attention to the OEM''s service Topl instructions and use the locking Filters and Air device manufacturer''s technical information to help with replacement or reinstallation. Warren/Fenner: In general, locking devices don''t Topl require any maintenance or special attention to maintain their performance and maximum life.
