Spline Shafts are ridges or teeth that mesh with the groove and transfer the torque. It maintains the angular correspondence between the tracks and the shaft. A splined shaft can be defined as a shaft with several grooves cut in the shaft. All these grooves are equally spaced around the circumference, and they form a series of projecting keys. They give the shaft a shape that helps it fit into an internally grooved cylindrical member.

Spline Shafts are mechanical components that can perform various functions. It can work as an anti-rotational device, and at the same time, you can use it to transmit torque to any other device. It is used in various industries. There are many types of alternative shafts like the key shafts, but the splined shafts are the most convenient way to transfer the torque.

The most common function of the spline shaft is to act as an anti-rotatory device. This function appears to be happening when working in the linear guide positions. If it is not working as a linear guard, the spline shaft works to transmit torque to another device. The function of the splined post is varied depending upon certain factors.

The spline shaft functions to mate with the female version and interlock to transfer the rotatory movement. The splined shaft works as a linear guide when coupled with a bearing with an internal spline gear mechanism. The function of a spline shaft depends upon the construction and type of spline applied to the shaft.

The functions of a typical spline shaft are often undertaken. It is because the splines of the gear are processed into the length of the post. There are different spline designs and shapes, and they have different roles and functions when meshed with the shaft.
