Overview

These universal mounting hubs are designed to work with most 6 mm diameter shafts, including round shafts and “D” shafts. Each of the two included hubs has six mounting holes for #4-40 screws (not included), letting you mount custom wheels or mechanisms to your motors. The four included #4-40 hex set screws (two for each hub) allow secure coupling of shaft to hub, with the longer set screws intended for the deeper of the two set screw holes. A 0.05″ hex wrench (often the smallest size in SAE Allen wrench sets) is included for use with the set screws. A dimension diagram of the hub is available under the resources tab.
