Shaft key for GT55 tuning setups

This O.S. Engine parallel key fits GT55 RC engines to lock hubs and flywheels to the crankshaft, transmitting torque while preserving component alignment. Its precision finish helps avoid slipping during aggressive tuning or high-RPM testing.

To install, align keyway and hub slot, slide the key into place so it seats correctly for the hub design, then assemble the flywheel and check for true rotation. Inspect the part after intense runs and swap it out at the first sign of deformation.

Use the key as a reference point for repeatable timing when adjusting ignition or carburetion settings. Avoid forcing the key into tight slots; a light press or tap is sufficient for most assemblies. This part is supplied as a serviceable spare for routine engine setup work.

A secure key keeps external components indexed to the crank, ensuring repeatable timing and alignment during tuning adjustments.
Seat the key flush or slightly proud based on hub design to maintain secure engagement without introducing imbalance.
Yes, a deformed or rounded key can shift component orientation and affect timing, so replace worn keys to keep settings consistent.
