A power transmitting device includes a case and first and second dogs. The first dog is rotatably disposed in the case about an axis and includes a set of first dog teeth. The second dog is movable along the axis and is non-rotatably coupled to the case. The second dog has a set of second dog teeth. One of the sets of first and second dog teeth includes a plurality of pins. Each of the pins extends parallel to the axis and includes a centerpoint and first and second contact surfaces that are defined by first and second radii, respectfully. A width of the pin across the first and second contact surfaces is smaller in length than a sum of a magnitude of the first radius and a magnitude of the second radius. A method for forming a power transmitting device is also provided.
