Bolton Engineering is pleased to present our comprehensive line of Shaft Lock Cone Clamping Elements

Why go keyless?

Today’s global marketplace demands precise, efficient machines that optimize productivity while minimizing material and fabrication costs. When compared to traditional connection methods, Drives Keyless Locking Devices offer the following advantages:

• A mechanical interference fit with a uniform pressure distribution similar to that achieved through a shrink or press fit.
• A true zero backlash shaft-to-hub connection with none of the operational drawbacks of keyways or splines.
• The ability to mount on plain shafting, which need not be over-sized to compensate for notch factors. This allows the use of smaller shafts and bearings for more cost effective designs.

Shaft Lock Cone Clamping Element are precision made to provide a wide, versatile range of keyless shaft/hub fixing assemblies. Their design is such they can be fitted to any mating component that has a parallel bore.

They offer simple installation, resistance to alternating torques, increased shaft strength, zero backlash, actual and angular adjustment therefore creating high torque transmission capacity.
