Overview

Boston Gear stocks a variety of clamping collars in different designs, including threaded, 1-piece and 2-piece styles, and materials, including nylon, steel, aluminum, and stainless steel. Such diversity is offered to ensure that the rapidly changing demands of every industry are met.

Clamp collars differ from setscrew collars in a few ways. They physically clamp around the shaft to provide an even distribution of holding force, causing no deformation to the shaft. In addition, they are easily repositioned and accept a greater variation in shaft diameters.


Features and Benefits

  • Boston Gear's clamping collars offer a greater distribution of clamping force, eliminating damage to the shaft.
  • 2-piece units can be attached to a fixed shaft.
  • Nylon, one-piece units are USDA/FDA approved for use in special manufacturing environments requiring washdown capabilities.
  • Threaded units provide the greatest axial holding power for superior performance.
  • Clamp screws recessed below the body ensure more efficient operation.

Sample Applications

  • Business machines
  • Food processing machinery
  • Mixers
  • Agricultural implements
  • Exercise equipment
