The Woodruff key, identified by part number 0500012, is a semi-circular fastening element used within the engine system of the Terex TX760B backhoe loader. It is specifically located within the pistons and crankshaft subsystem, where it secures components such as timing gears, pulleys, or flywheels to the crankshaft. By seating into a milled keyway on the shaft and a corresponding slot in the mating component, it prevents rotational slippage and maintains the necessary synchronization for engine operation.
This component is compatible with the Terex TX760B model. It acts as a critical interface that transmits torque from the crankshaft to external engine parts, ensuring that the timing and power delivery remain consistent during machine operation. Proper installation of this key is essential for maintaining the mechanical integrity of the crankshaft assembly and preventing misalignment of the engine timing components.
