Clamping Shaft Collars

All EPT shaft collars, including quick-clamping collars, are one point faced to make sure perpendicularity and proper alignment. This critical manufacturing stage assures precise shaft collar experience to bore relationship resulting in correct element positioning on the shaft and even pressure on interfaced elements.
Quick-clamping shaft collars from EPT are produced from high quality metal with type-II sulfuric anodized finishes, with a black finish upon the collar and a gold finish about the clamping lever for added visibility. Light weight aluminum collars are corrosion resistant, lighter than additional metals, possess low inertia and have nonmagnetic properties. All EPT items are RoHS and REACH compliant. Available typical sizes for the quick-clamping shaft collars happen to be 0.375” to at least one 1.5” in the inches series and 8 mm to 38 mm in the metric series.
This EPT two-piece clamping shaft collar is made of black oxide steel. This is a two-part clamping shaft collar for applications needing a more powerful holding power and larger axial load ability than setscrew or one-part clamping collars. The two-piece style separates into two halves, allowing installation or repositioning everywhere on the shaft without disturbing existing elements. It Clamping Shaft Collars accommodates a larger variety of shaft diameters than setscrew collars and is effective on both hard and delicate shafts. It is manufactured from steel for weldability and rust level of resistance with a dark-colored oxide finish for a ornamental appearance and level of resistance to white corrosion, chipping and flaking, and stick-slide of the screw during torqueing, increasing the collar’s grip on the shaft. Dark oxide also provides moderate corrosion resistance and improved lubricity. This collar includes forged socket-brain cap screws for securing the collar onto the shaft. The functioning temperatures because of this collar range from -40 to 176 degrees C (-40 to 350 degrees F). This shaft collar is well suited for use in various applications, which include in the auto industry to situate components in automobile electricity steering assemblies, the manufacturing industry to locate elements on a conveyor belt system, and the hobby craft industry to hold tires on axles in handy remote control vehicles, among others.
Allows assembly / disassembly on and off the shaft with no need to remove other ancillary elements. Clamps firmly set up when tightened to the shaft. Ideal for positioning elements such as bearings or sprockets onto shafts.
The position is easily adjusted when fitted onto a shaft. Clamps firmly set up when tightened to the shaft. Perfect for positioning components such as bearings or sprockets onto shafts.
The double split shaft collar made of steel browned (clamp collar) is easy to install. The shaft collars usually do not damage the shaft. Also, they are insensitive to exterior forces and vibrations and distribute the retaining forces evenly over the entire shaft circumference.
Clamp-style and arranged screw shaft collars from Grainger can be indispensable to power transmission. They can maintain bearings and sprockets on shafts, situate pieces in electric motor and gearbox assemblies and provide as mechanical stops. A two-piece clamping shaft collar can easily wrap around a difficult or soft shaft without marring. Arranged screw collars employ a cup stage socket set screw to lock onto a smooth or predrilled shaft.

The collar clamping mechanism works fast and efficiently with simple hands opening of the integral clamping lever, positioning the collar on the shaft, and closing the lever flush with the external area of the collar. The look of the cam on the lever and the mating machined area on the collar assure a tight fit with a optimum axial load of 35 to 120 lbs / 133 to 489 N according to the collar bore size. In scenarios where higher holding vitality is usually or clamp axial load is required, the quick-clamping collar isn’t the recommended decision. EPT offers a full type of industry-leading one-part and two-piece shaft collars suitable for these applications.
