Ruland releases quick-clamping shaft collars

Ruland Manufacturing Company has introduced quick-clamping shaft collars that do not mar the shaft, do not require tools and are designed for quick adjustments.

The collars are suitable for light duty applications with frequent setup changes or adjustments, or where the need for tools is not practical.

The quick-clamping collars are designed with a low-profile clamping lever, which makes them suitable for rotating and stationary applications.

Industries such as printing and packaging, as well as others, can use quick-clamping collars to retain frequently changed items, such as rolls of media, or for rapid and precise adjustments of guide rails or other setup fixturing.

The quick-clamping design shaft collars are made from high-quality aluminium with an anodised finish.

The shaft collars are available with bore sizes from 5/16in to 1 1/2in in the inch series and 8mm to 35mm in the metric series.

As all Ruland shaft collars, the quick-clamping design collars are single point faced to ensure perpendicularity and proper alignment.

A precise shaft collar face-to-bore relationship ensures that components are properly positioned and not tilted on the shaft.

Collar face perpendicularity also ensures even pressure on interfaced components.

Ruland shaft collars are also available in one- and two-piece clamp-style designs and set-screw design.
