Mountable shaft collars with face holes are designed to mate directly with components such as sprockets, pulleys, and metallic plates. Ruland manufactures them with drilled holes for mounting flexibility or threaded holes for the most secure connection between the collar and mated component. They are offered in steel, aluminum, and 303 stainless steel in bore sizes ranging from 3/8” to 2” and 10mm to 50mm.
Clamp style universal joints improve over set screw style because they do not mar the shaft, offer infinite adjustability, and can be used on all shaft types. Ruland is the only North American supplier of clamp style universal joints and manufactures the clamp feature, bores, and keyways in our advanced manufacturing facility in Marlborough, MA USA. They are available in sizes from 1/4" to 1 1/4” in steel for high strength and stainless steel for corrosion resistance.
Ruland 4-beam couplings are manufactured from a single piece of aluminum or stainless steel with multiple spiral (helical) cuts allowing for a zero-backlash encoder coupling with higher accuracy and better overall misalignment capabilities than traditional single beam couplings. They are designed with extra flexibility to provide reduced bearing loads, which is critical in encoders which have small sensitive bearings. Ruland 4-beam couplings have a balanced design for reduced vibration at speeds up to 6,000 RPM. Ruland manufactures two series of 4-beam couplings, P and MW, giving designers a variety of performance and dimensional characteristics to choose from. Ruland manufactures 4-beam couplings in our Marlborough, Massachusetts factory with bore sizes ranging from 3/32” to 1/2” or 3mm to 12mm.
