Clamping Collar Delta OZ-50/M8 — metal shaft clamp, model OZ-50/M8

Delta clamping collar OZ-50/M8 is a metal shaft clamp designed to secure components on a cylindrical shaft. The collar has a nominal diameter of 50 mm and uses a single M8 clamping screw to provide axial retention of bearings, pulleys, gears and couplings. Constructed from metal for mechanical strength, this shaft clamp is intended for industrial and maintenance applications where simple, reliable axial positioning is required.

Advantages

The single-screw design allows straightforward installation and adjustment with common hand tools. Metal construction offers wear resistance and mechanical stability under axial loads. Its compact form factor and standard diameter make it compatible with a wide range of shaft-mounted components while providing secure fixation without the need for shaft modifications.

Suitable for

• Axial positioning of bearings on plain shafts
• Retention of pulleys and gears in power transmission assemblies
• Mounting couplings and spacers in machinery and conveyors
• Maintenance and repair tasks in industrial equipment

Key specifications

• Material: metal construction for strength and durability
• Nominal diameter: 50 mm intended for shafts close to this diameter
• Clamping screw: single-threaded M8 screw for axial fixation
• Mounting type: external collar that clamps radially onto the shaft
• Function: axial locking and component retention on cylindrical shafts

How to use

Position the clamping collar at the required axial location on a clean, straight section of shaft. Tighten the M8 screw with an appropriate wrench or hex key until the collar clamps securely around the shaft and axial movement of the mounted component is eliminated. Verify alignment of the mounted parts and retighten after initial operation if necessary. For removal, loosen the screw and slide the collar off the shaft; apply light lubrication to the screw threads if needed to ease adjustment.

Usage recommendations

Use the collar on shafts that match the nominal diameter as closely as possible and ensure the shaft surface is free of burrs, heavy corrosion or machining residues. Do not exceed the axial load capacity of the assembly; consult equipment specifications for permitted loads. Periodically inspect the clamping screw and collar for loosening and wear, especially in vibrating or high-load environments.
