Clamping rings are used, for example, to secure shafts and axles. However, they can also serve as a fixed stop or as a fastening option, whereby they can be adjusted or dismantled as often as required.

At norelem, clamping rings are divided into three product families: Clamping rings of the "slotted, internal" type are mounted axially on shafts or axles and enclose them with an even distribution of the clamping forces. This results in a dimensionally accurate fit and very large holding forces without damaging the shaft. Clamping rings "slotted, outside" function according to the same principle. However, due to the slot on the outside of the clamping ring, 15% higher clamping forces can be achieved, and at the same time these models impress with lower imbalance. The bore remains cylindrical - as a result, the shaft is enclosed more precisely.
Slotted clamping rings are available in a normal and a wider version.

The third product family is the split clamping rings. They can be placed on the shaft or axle both axially and radially. The two parts are held together by two cap screws. As with the slotted version, clamping is achieved by reducing the slot height by means of the cap screws. This results in a dimensionally accurate fit and very large holding forces without damaging the shaft. Clamping rings "split" can be mounted without removing the shaft. They are also available in a normal and a wider version.

in addition to these product families, clamping rings with threads are also available from norelem, as well as models that can be fixed with a clamping lever.
