Metric Shaft Collars
View Products
Steel shaft collars are crucial components in mechanical systems, designed to secure and position various parts on a shaft. They work by clamping around the shaft, using either set screws or a split design to hold the collar in place. The set screw type tightens directly onto the shaft, creating a secure grip, while the split design wraps around the shaft and is tightened with screws, providing a more even distribution of force without damaging the shaft surface. These collars are used to maintain the position of bearings, sprockets, and other components, ensuring they stay in place during operation.
