Climax Metal Products 2C-043 Two Piece Shaft Collar

Product Description

The CLIMAX METAL PRODUCTS 2C-043 is a two-piece shaft collar designed to locate, space, and retain components on rotating or stationary shafts. It features a plain bore diameter of 0.438 inches and an outside diameter of 0.9375 inches (15/16 inches), with a width of 0.375 inches (3/8 inches). Constructed from steel with a black oxide finish, the 2C-043 provides corrosion resistance and a clean appearance suited to industrial environments. The two-piece design allows installation and removal without disassembling adjacent components, making it a practical choice for maintenance-heavy applications. It is installed by licensed or journeyman mechanical technicians and industrial maintenance personnel.

The 2C-043 is suited for use in light-to-medium industrial machinery, conveyor systems, pump shafts, and general power transmission assemblies. The two-piece style is especially useful where shaft ends are not accessible, allowing the collar to be positioned anywhere along the shaft length. This collar fits a 0.438-inch bore shaft and is appropriate for residential, commercial, and light industrial mechanical applications wherever precise shaft component positioning is required.
