SAE Parallel Side Splines Table of Sizes and Dimensions

Parallel-side spline's have been standardized by the SAE for 4, 6, 10, and 16 spline fittings.

* Tolerance allowed of -0.001 in for shafts 3⁄4 to 13⁄4 in, inclusive; of -0.002 for shafts 2 to 3 in, inclusive; -0.003 in for shafts 31⁄2 to 6 in, inclusive, for 4-, 6-, and 10-spline fittings; tolerance of -0.003 in allowed for all sizes of 16-spline fittings.
