Clamping Shaft Collars

All EPT shaft collars, including quick-clamping collars, are single point faced to make sure perpendicularity and proper alignment. This critical manufacturing step assures precise shaft collar facial area to bore relationship resulting in correct element positioning on the shaft and even pressure on interfaced components.
Quick-clamping shaft collars from EPT are made of high quality light weight aluminum with type-II sulfuric anodized finishes, with a black finish upon the collar and a precious metal finish on the clamping lever for added visibility. Lightweight aluminum collars are corrosion resilient, lighter than various other metals, possess low inertia and have non-magnetic properties. All EPT products happen to be RoHS and REACH compliant. Available regular sizes for the quick-clamping shaft collars are 0.375” to at least one 1.5” in the inch series and 8 mm to 38 mm in the metric series.
This EPT two-piece clamping shaft collar is made from black oxide steel. This is a two-part clamping shaft collar for applications needing a more robust holding power and higher axial load ability than setscrew or one-part clamping collars. The two-piece style separates into two halves, allowing assembly or repositioning everywhere on the shaft without disturbing existing elements. It accommodates a larger variety of shaft diameters than setscrew collars and is effective on both hard and delicate shafts. It is manufactured from metal for weldability and rust resistance with a black oxide complete for a decorative appearance and resistance to white corrosion, chipping and flaking, and stick-slide of the screw during torqueing, improving the collar’s hold on the shaft. Dark-colored oxide also provides gentle corrosion resistance and increased lubricity. This collar comes with forged socket-mind cap screws for securing the collar onto the shaft. The operating temperatures because of this collar range between -40 to 176 degrees C (-40 to 350 degrees F). This shaft collar is well suited for use in various applications, including in the auto industry to situate elements in automobile power steering assemblies, the manufacturing industry to locate parts on a conveyor belt program, and the hobby craft industry to hold wheels on axles in remote control vehicles, among others.
Allows assembly / disassembly on / off the shaft without the need to eliminate other ancillary factors. Clamps firmly in place when tightened to the shaft. Ideal for positioning components such as bearings or sprockets onto shafts.
The positioning is easily adjusted when fitted onto a shaft. Clamps firmly in place once tightened to the shaft. Ideal for positioning pieces such as for example bearings or sprockets onto shafts.
The twice split shaft collar made of steel browned (clamp collar) is simple to install. The shaft collars cast aluminium china usually do not destruction the shaft. They are also insensitive to external forces and vibrations and distribute the retaining forces evenly over the whole shaft circumference.
Clamp-style and placed screw shaft collars from Grainger can be indispensable to power transmission. They can maintain bearings and sprockets on shafts, situate pieces in engine and gearbox assemblies and provide as mechanical stops. A two-part clamping shaft collar can easily wrap around a difficult or gentle shaft without marring. Collection screw collars work with a cup stage socket placed screw to lock onto a soft or predrilled shaft.

The collar clamping mechanism works fast and successfully with simple palm opening of the integral clamping lever, positioning the collar on the shaft, and closing the lever flush with the external surface of the collar. The design of the cam on the lever and the mating machined area on the collar assure a tight fit with a maximum axial load of 35 to 120 lbs / 133 to 489 N according to the collar bore size. In situations where higher holding power is certainly or clamp axial load is required, the quick-clamping collar isn’t the recommended choice. EPT offers a full type of industry-leading one-piece and two-part shaft collars made for these applications.
