MSP-20-F, Ruland, Two-piece shaft collar

Ruland MSP-F is a two-piece shaft collar.

The clamp style design does not mar the shaft, is easy to remove, and is indefinitely adjustable. It is commonly used for guiding, spacing, stopping, mounting, and component alignment. Equipment manufacturers benefit from the tightly controlled face to bore perpendicularity of Ruland shaft collars, TIR of ≤ 05mm. Perpendicularity is critical for alignment when the shaft collar is used as a load bearing face, mechanical stop, or for mounting components such as gears or bearings. Proprietary processes have been developed by Ruland to maintain superior fit, finish, and holding power.

MSP-F is stamped with the Ruland name and bore size for ease of identification. Halves are mated throughout the manufacturing process for proper fit and alignment. Forged screws test beyond DIN 912 12.9 standards to ensure maximum holding power.

MSP-F is manufactured from solid bar stock sourced from select North American mills and machined to a fine burr free finish. Ruland uses 1215 lead-free steel with a proprietary black oxide finish that produces a fine glossy finish while increasing holding power and resisting corrosion.
