Two-Piece Clamp-Style Shaft Collar (MSP-20-F)

The MSP-20-F designation corresponds to a Ruland two-piece clamp style shaft collar with a 20 mm bore. A two-piece collar is installed without removing components from the shaft, and the clamp screws provide holding power through friction around the shaft without marring it. Collars are used to position components, serve as mechanical stops or hold bearings and gears in place. Typical applications include automation equipment, packaging machines, linear guide shafts and general machine building. Holding power depends on the screw torque and shaft.
