Great advise. That puts the extra work out of the to-do list.

McMaster offers a hub style shaft clamp as opposed to set-screws.
Seems it is for the L style so I assume it is good for high torque.
I have used them on very large hp motors with drive pullies, but not
in motion control.

It is simple enough to drill or file a flat on a shaft so starting
there might be a good start.
