I've never really dealt with this before and want to make sure my thought process on this.
Setup
A shaft (Di) feeds into a receiving hub (Do). A shear pin of diameter, d, will go through a radial hole that is drilled through both the shaft and the receiving hub. The length of the shear pin will equal Do.
Main Questions
- Is the 'Double Shear Strenght' listed in most catalogs equal to the following?
P = T/Do (where T is the torque 'seen' at this coupling)
If this isn't the way to figure out what Double Shear Strength I need, could someone please give me a hint here. I'm completely lost and it's frustrated the hell out of me. Maybe it's a case of sitting too close to the screen for two long :shrug:
Thanks in advance,
Dan
