Climax Metal Products CR1C-181 Split Shaft Collar

Product Description

The CLIMAX METAL PRODUCTS CR1C-181 is a one piece split shaft collar designed to locate, space, and retain rotating or sliding components on a shaft. The split design allows installation and removal without full shaft disassembly, saving time during maintenance or adjustment. Built from 1215 grade steel with a yellow zinc finish, this collar measures 2.875 inches in outside diameter and 0.6875 inches in width. It is a standard mechanical component used across industrial, HVAC, pump, and power transmission assemblies wherever positive shaft positioning is required.

This collar fits applications requiring a compact, rigid one-piece clamping solution. The split configuration provides consistent clamping force without distorting the shaft bore. Typical install scenarios include fan assemblies, conveyor drives, pump shafts, and similar rotating equipment where a secure, repositionable stop collar is needed. The yellow zinc finish provides corrosion resistance suitable for light-duty and indoor industrial environments.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation split shaft collar for mechanical assemblies requiring a 2.875 inch OD one piece collar on compatible shaft diameters.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a millwright, mechanical technician, or qualified maintenance professional. De-energize and lock out all equipment before positioning or tightening the collar. Use the correct hex key or fastener driver for the set screw or clamping bolt per the assembly requirements. Verify shaft surface is clean and free of burrs before securing the collar to ensure full clamping contact.
