Built from steel with a black oxide finish, it features a plain bore diameter of 1.688 inches and an outside diameter of 2.75 inches. The split two piece construction allows the collar to be installed or removed without disassembling the shaft or adjacent components, saving time on maintenance and positioning tasks. At 0.688 inches wide and 0.62 pounds, it is a compact, durable component suited for demanding industrial and mechanical service environments. This collar is manufactured under ISO 9001:2008 quality standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 2C-168 is used in a wide range of mechanical power transmission applications where shaft positioning, component retention, or bearing preload is required. Typical installations include conveyor systems, pump assemblies, motors, gearboxes, and general industrial machinery. The two piece split design is particularly suited for shaft locations where a one piece collar cannot be slipped on from the end, making mid-shaft installation practical without full disassembly. Licensed millwrights, maintenance technicians, and mechanical assemblers handle installation in both new builds and retrofit service situations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo piece split design enables mid-shaft installation without removing adjacent components\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlain bore at 1.688 inches diameter for direct shaft engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2.75 inches outside diameter with 0.688 inches face width\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel construction with black oxide finish for corrosion resistance in light-duty environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufactured to ISO 9001:2008 quality standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.62 pounds for easy handling and precise positioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit shaft collar for mechanical assemblies requiring a 1.688 inch bore two piece split collar in the 2C series.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified millwright or mechanical technician familiar with shaft collar applications. Disconnect and lock out all power to the machine before installing or repositioning the collar. Align both collar halves evenly on the shaft before tightening fasteners in a cross pattern to ensure uniform clamping force. Do not exceed the collar manufacturer fastener torque ratings, and verify the collar is secured at the correct shaft position before returning the equipment to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle\u003c\/strong\u003e: Two Piece Split Shaft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBore Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBore Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.688 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.688 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.62 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISO 9001:2008\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31162800\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: CLIMAX METAL PRODUCTS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2C-168\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CLIMAX METAL PRODUCTS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51963892105522,"sku":"2C-168","price":56.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0f8514ef1863e2b406c958fbfdd568c8.jpg?v=1789948698","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/climax-metal-products-2c-168-split-shaft-collar-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
