Pump Feather Key

A pump feather key is a type of key used in power and hand pumps. It is a small, rectangular metal piece that is inserted into a keyway on the pump shaft and the pump impeller or rotor. The purpose of the feather key is to provide a secure connection between the shaft and the impeller, ensuring that they rotate together and transfer power effectively.

Feather keys are commonly used in pumps and other rotating machinery to prevent slippage or misalignment between the shaft and the impeller. They are designed to withstand the torque and rotational forces generated during pump operation.

In the supply group of pumps and compressors, the power and hand pumps class includes various types of pumps that are operated manually or with the help of power sources such as electricity or engines. These pumps are used for a wide range of applications, including water pumping, fluid transfer, and pressure generation.
