What Are One-Piece Clamp Shaft Collars Used For?

Typical applications, the industries that specify one-piece clamp shaft collars, and how to choose the right size, material and finish for the joint.

One-Piece Clamp Shaft Collars are used for the mechanical function defined by its drawing and dimensional table. They are manufactured to Trade series (one-piece clamp-type shaft collars), and selection is driven by the bore diameter, the fit and tolerance the assembly requires, and the service environment.

What Are One-Piece Clamp Shaft Collars Used For? application image

The primary duty of One-Piece Clamp Shaft Collars is the mechanical function defined by its drawing and dimensional table. Below: the sectors that specify them in volume, the checklist used to select the right size and material for the application, installation notes, and the known limits of the type. Stocked across roughly 6 mm to 40 mm, they cover general to heavy-duty work.

Typical Applications for One-Piece Clamp Shaft Collars

The most common settings where these are specified:

  • General machine building: fastening covers, brackets, motors and sub-assemblies on production equipment.
  • Maintenance & repair (MRO): a stocked size for servicing existing plant where the original fastener spec must be matched.
  • Fabrication & metalwork: bench and on-site assembly of steel frames, enclosures and weldments.

How to Specify One-Piece Clamp Shaft Collars for Your Application

  • Size: Select on bore diameter, and confirm it against the mating feature in the assembly. This product spans 6 mm–40 mm; check the full table below for the exact dimensions of each size.
  • Material: Choose the material and finish for the service environment — plated steel for general use, stainless for corrosion resistance.
  • Environment: For damp, coastal or chemical exposure prefer A4/316 stainless or a suitable coating; indoors, plated steel or A2 is usually sufficient.
  • Standard: This product is supplied to Trade series (one-piece clamp-type shaft collars). Quoting the standard on your order guarantees interchangeable dimensions between suppliers.

Where One-Piece Clamp Shaft Collars Are Not the Right Choice

Match the fastener to the load, environment and whether the joint must be reopened; the wrong class or style is the usual cause of joint failure.

Technical Drawing

Customize the parameters below — every spec field is editable, and the drawing redraws to match the values you choose. Changing the size will snap the other fields to that size's standard values; you can then override any individual value.

Inside the plant

Manufactured in our own plant

This part is cold-formed, threaded, heat-treated and finished in-house. The stages below are where its class and finish are actually decided.

  1. Wire rod feeding into a cold heading machine
    01

    Cold heading

    Wire rod is drawn to size and cold-formed into blanks. Forming rather than cutting keeps the grain flow continuous around the head, which is where a bolt is most likely to fail.

    Head dimensions and under-head radius checked at set-up and per shift.

  2. Thread rolling machine producing bolt threads
    02

    Thread rolling

    Threads are rolled between hardened dies rather than cut. Rolled threads are stronger in fatigue than cut threads and hold pitch and flank angle far more consistently across a batch.

    Go / no-go ring gauges to ISO 965 tolerance class 6g.

  3. Baskets of bolts staged for heat treatment
    03

    Heat treatment

    Quench-and-temper brings carbon and alloy steel to the property class ordered — 8.8, 10.9 or 12.9 — with the furnace charge tracked so a finished lot can be traced back to it.

    Core hardness and tensile tested per lot to ISO 898-1.

  4. Zinc plated bolts in a treatment basket
    04

    Surface treatment

    Zinc, zinc-nickel, hot-dip galvanizing, black oxide, phosphate and Dacromet, selected against the service environment rather than against the price list.

    Coating thickness and neutral salt spray hours to ISO 9227.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right size of One-Piece Clamp Shaft Collars?

Select on bore diameter and on the fit the assembly requires. This product is available from 6 mm to 40 mm; the full dimension table on this page lists each size.

What material should One-Piece Clamp Shaft Collars be for outdoor use?

For damp, coastal or chemical environments specify A4 (316) stainless or a suitably coated steel. For indoor or dry use, A2 (304) stainless or zinc-plated steel is normally adequate.

Are One-Piece Clamp Shaft Collars made to a recognized standard?

Yes — they are manufactured to Trade series (one-piece clamp-type shaft collars), so dimensions are interchangeable between suppliers when you quote the standard on your order.

What are One-Piece Clamp Shaft Collars used for?

The mechanical function defined by its drawing and dimensional table. They are supplied to Trade series (one-piece clamp-type shaft collars).

Can I get a quote for One-Piece Clamp Shaft Collars in the size and material I need?

Yes. Use the technical drawing and quote form on this page to set the size and options, then send the exact configuration to our team for pricing and lead time.
