Get Your Gear Back to Work with Genuine Victor Parts

There is nothing more frustrating than a project coming to a grinding halt because of a tiny, lost, or broken part. The Victor 1404-0060 Key, Woodruff #405, Steel is exactly the part you need when you find yourself staring at a shaft with a missing key. Woodruff keys are those little half-moon shaped pieces of metal that keep your gears, wheels, and knobs spinning together with the shaft they are mounted on. Without them, the shaft spins, but the tool doesn't work. It’s a classic case of a small part causing a big headache if you don't have a spare on hand.

This particular key is a genuine Victor replacement, meaning it is designed specifically to fit your Victor equipment without the hassle of filing or forcing it into place. It is sized to the #405 standard, a common size for various internal mechanisms in cutting machines and industrial tools, but precision matters. Because it is made of durable steel, it is tough enough to handle the torque and stress of daily shop use. You don't want to replace a sheared key with a soft piece of metal that will just fail again in a week. You want something that locks in tight and holds on.

For welders and fabricators who maintain their own equipment, keeping a few of these essentials in your repair kit is a smart move. Whether you are doing a routine overhaul on your cutting tractor or fixing a wobbly control knob, having the right Woodruff key makes the job quick and painless. This key drops right into the semicircular slot on the shaft, and once the mating part is slid over it, you are locked and loaded. It’s a simple, mechanical fix that restores your machine's power transmission instantly.

Don't let a missing key slow down your production line. Trust in the quality of Victor's OEM parts to keep your shop running efficiently. The 1404-0060 is the reliable, steel solution for your repair needs, ensuring that when you fix it, it stays fixed. Order yours today and get your equipment back to performing at the high level you expect from the Victor brand.
