Straight Sided Spline Dimensions

Introduction

The tables below show the dimensions of a straight sided spline in accordance with BS 5686:1986, ISO 14-1982: Specification for straight-sided splines for cylindrical shafts: metric nominal dimensions, tolerances and gauging requirements

Straight Sided Spline Dimensions

The profile of a straight sided spline is defined by

N = Number of splines
d = Minor Diameter
D = Outside Diameter
