Clamping Shaft Collars

This collar includes a cast aluminium china Quick-clamping design to make frequent adjustments utilizing a lever handle instead of tools. It is ideal for applications that require quick alterations and process tuning such as for example adjusting instruction rails or locating pieces. It is made of aluminum with an anodized finish that increases the metal’s wear and corrosion resilient properties and boosts its area hardness, holding electric power, and visual aspect. This collar posseses an aluminum lever handle with a gold anodized finish for quick installation and relieve of the collar. The working temperatures for this collar range between -40 to 93 degrees C (-40 to 200 degrees F). This shaft collar is ideal for use in various applications, which include in the automobile industry to situate components in automobile power steering assemblies, the production industry to locate parts on a conveyor belt system, and the hobby craft industry to hold tires on axles in handy remote control vehicles, among others.

Shaft collars are ring-shaped devices mainly used to secure elements onto shafts. In addition they serve as locators, mechanical stops, and spacers between other components. The two standard types of shaft collars are clamping (or split) collars, which come in one- or two-piece models, and setscrew collars. In both types, one or more screws contain the collars in place on the shaft. In setscrew collars, screws are tightened through the collar until they press directly against the shaft, and in clamping collars, screws are tightened to uniformly compress the collar around the shaft without impinging or marring it. Setscrew collars and one-part clamping collars should be mounted by sliding the collar over the end of the shaft, while two-piece clamping collars different into two halves and will be installed between components on the shaft. Shaft collars are made from an array of materials including zinc-plated metal, light weight aluminum, nylon, and neoprene. Within nearly all sorts of machinery and industry, shaft collars are being used in applications which include gearbox assemblies, motor bases, machine tools, travel shafts, agricultural implements, medical equipment, and paper and steel mill equipment, among others.

EPT manufactures shaft collars, rigid couplings, and zero-backlash movement control couplings including beam couplings, bellows couplings, Oldham couplings, curved jaw couplings, and miniature disc couplings. The business, founded in 1937, and headquartered in Marlborough, MA, complies with Restriction of Hazardous Chemicals (RoHS) and Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemical substances (REACH) standards.
One-part clamping shaft collar for applications requiring a more uniform holding electricity and higher axial load ability than setscrew collars
Quick-clamping collar design for making frequent adjustments without tools
Aluminum with an anodized end for greater corrosion level of resistance, wear resistance, and surface area hardness than plain aluminum
Includes an aluminum lever handle with a gold anodized finish for quick installation and release of the collar
Operating temperatures range between -40 to 93 degrees C (-40 to 200 degrees F)
Shaft collars are generally used as courses, spacers, mechanical stops, and for component alignment upon a shaft. They happen to be one of the most frequent power transmission components and are found on equipment in most industries.
