The Multiquip 38205 Key 1/4 Square X 3 is a genuine OEM replacement key designed for the SP118 flat saw series. As a direct Multiquip OEM part, it is manufactured to the same specifications as the original component installed at the factory, ensuring a correct fit within the drivetrain assembly. This part is confirmed for use on SP118 series flat saws, making it a dependable choice when servicing these machines.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Machined to exact dimensional tolerances required for proper torque transfer in the SP118 drivetrain, with no risk of slippage due to undersized or off-spec material.
- Direct Slot Fit — Sized specifically for 1/4-inch square keyways, dropping into the shaft and hub keyway seats without filing, shimming, or reworking.
- Confirmed SP118 Compatibility — Verified fitment for Multiquip SP118 flat saw models, so you can order with confidence when cross-referencing your parts list.
- Positive Power Transfer — A correctly fitted drive key locks rotating components to the shaft, preventing blade or pulley slippage that can cause uneven cuts and premature component wear.
- Compact, Critical Component — Despite its small size, a worn or sheared key will immediately disable power transmission; having the correct OEM replacement on hand avoids extended saw downtime on a cut.
A drive key is a small rectangular metal component that sits in matching slots — called keyways — cut into both a shaft and a mating hub, such as a pulley, sprocket, or blade arbor. It acts as a mechanical lock that forces both parts to rotate together as a single unit, preventing the hub from spinning freely on the shaft under load. When a key shears or wears, the hub loses its drive connection entirely, and the machine will no longer transmit power to the cutting blade or driven component until the key is replaced.
