Climax Metal Products C-262-A Set Screw Collar

What this collar is and who fits it

This Climax Metal Products C-262-A set screw collar is a new power-transmission component supplied directly by the manufacturer. It suits maintenance engineers and equipment assemblers who need a transparent collar for securing shafts or hubs in industrial drives.

Practical limits of the set-screw interface

A set-screw collar relies on friction between the screw tip and the shaft, so holding power drops on hardened or oversized shafts and under reversing or high-vibration loads. The transparent material lets you inspect screw engagement visually, but it does not change the fundamental torque limit of the clamping method.

What this replaces and when the change pays off

The collar replaces a worn, cracked or missing collar of the same bore and width on existing machinery. Swapping it is worthwhile when the old unit no longer locates the component reliably or when a transparent version simplifies routine alignment checks during scheduled downtime.
