    This document discusses the different types of keys used in mechanical engineering, including sunk keys, saddle keys, tangent keys, round keys, and splines. It notes that keys are commonly made from hardened and tempered steel grades like C30, C35, C40, C50, and 55Mn75, as well as brass and stainless steel for corrosive environments, with a typical factor of safety of 3 to 4 applied to the yield strength.

    Types of the Keys:

    1. Sunk keys    2. Saddle keys    3. Tangent keys    4. Round keys    5. Splines

    Note: Keys are made of ductile materials. Commonly used materials for a key are hardened and tempered steel of grades
    C30, C35, C40, C50 and 55Mn75 etc. Brass and stainless keys are used in corrosive environment. Factor of safety of 3 to 4 is
    generally taken on yield strength.
