2.3
Mounting Spider and Drum Hub
2.3.1
The spider and drum hub are bored for a press fit
onto their respective shafts. The interference is
approximately 0.0005 inch per inch (0.0005
mm/mm) of shaft diameter.
2.3.1.1 Ensure the shaft is clean and free of nicks or burrs
and check the shaft and bore diameters for proper
fit.
2.3.1.2 Tap the key into the keyway, making sure it
bottoms.
2.3.1.3 Apply a light coat of anti-seizing compound to the
shaft and key.
2.3.1.4 Heat the drum hub or spider uniformly to 250°F
(121°C)
to expand the bore.
⚠
CAUTION
It is recommended the drum hub or spider be
heated in oil or an oven; however, since this is
not always possible, torches may be used.
When using torches, use several with
“rosebud” (broad-flame) tips and keep them
moving to avoid "hot spots". Check bore
temperature frequently to avoid overheating.
2.3.1.5 Slide the heated drum hub or spider onto the shaft
until the hub face is flush with the end of the shaft.
Hold in position and allow to cool.
2.4
Shaft Alignment
Note
: The text in this section applies to gap
mounted applications; however, the alignment
tolerances apply to all types of mountings.
Parallel Alignment Tolerance (Offset):
Not to exceed 0.010 inch (0.254 mm) Total
Indicator Reading (0.005 inch (0.127 mm)
maximum offset).
Angular Alignment Tolerance (Gap):
Not to exceed 0.0005 inch per inch (0.0005 mm/
mm) diameter at which readings are taken (“D”
on Figure 9).
Note
: The alignment procedure described below
has been used successfully on many VC clutch and
brake applications. Other procedures, of course,
may be used; however, the alignment tolerances
are the same regardless of the technique used.
