ABSTRACT:
A drive key (10) for an aircraft wheel comprises a hardened and tempered steel member (10) having improved wear and corrosion resistance. The steel member (10) is coated selectively with a tungsten carbide-cobalt coating (22) to provide wear resistance at side portions (18) where the drive key (10) is engaged by portions of an aircraft brake, and the entire steel member (10) including the tungsten carbide-cobalt coating can be plated with electroless nickel to provide improved corrosion resistance.
