Ruland expands range of International Series shaft collars

Ruland expands range of International Series shaft collars

Ruland has expanded its range of International Series shaft collars to include quick clamping with clamping lever, mountable with or without quick clamping lever, and anodized aluminium bodies with stainless steel hardware. The International Series is an application solution series that lets designers work with inch or metric bore shaft collars that share a single set of dimensions and hardware. This standardization makes it easier to specify shaft collars in different parts of the machine as the envelope will be the same and the use of metric hardware reduces the installation tool variability needed to assemble components in the machine.
