Summit Collars Brand 1CC-050-050 Single Split Clamping Coupling, ISCC-050-050 1/2″ X 1/2″ Bore 1 1/8 inch OD, 1 3/4 inch Length, 8-32 x 1/2 Clamp Screw

Description

Product Overview

The Summit Collars 1/2″ Split Clamp-On Coupling is engineered to deliver a secure, non‑marring connection for a wide range of shaft diameters. Constructed from high‑strength steel with a black‑oxide coating, the coupling resists corrosion while maintaining the structural integrity required for demanding industrial environments. The design incorporates an 8‑32 UNF clamp screw that provides a firm, repeatable clamping force, ensuring that the coupling remains locked even under high axial loads and torque spikes. With a compact overall length of 1.75 inches and a bore size of 1/2 inch, the unit fits seamlessly into tight spaces where traditional rigid couplings might be too bulky. The black‑oxide finish not only adds a subtle aesthetic appeal but also contributes to the longevity of the component by protecting against moisture and chemical exposure.

Usage

This coupling is ideally suited for power transmission applications across a variety of industries, including manufacturing, material handling, and automation. It excels when joining hard shafts such as steel or stainless steel, as well as softer materials like aluminum or composite shafts, thanks to its split‑clamp design that distributes pressure evenly without gouging the shaft surface. Typical installations involve connecting motor shafts to gearboxes, pumps, or conveyor rollers where precise alignment and reliable torque transfer are critical. The 8‑32 UNF clamp screw allows technicians to achieve a consistent torque setting without the need for specialized tools, making field service and routine maintenance straightforward. Because the coupling can accommodate shafts up to 1‑1/8″ outer diameter, it offers flexibility for both standard and slightly oversized shafts, reducing the need for multiple part numbers in inventory.

FAQ

What shaft materials can this coupling be used with?

The split‑clamp design works well with steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and composite shafts. It grips securely without damaging the surface, making it suitable for both hard and soft materials.

How do I determine the correct torque for the clamp screw?

We recommend a torque setting of 4‑6 in‑lb for the 8‑32 UNF screw. This range provides enough clamping force to prevent slippage while avoiding over‑tightening that could damage the shaft.

Is the black‑oxide finish sufficient for outdoor applications?

Yes, the black‑oxide coating offers good corrosion resistance for most outdoor environments. For extremely aggressive conditions, a supplemental protective coating can be applied.

Can this coupling be used in high‑speed applications?

The coupling is designed for moderate speeds typical of industrial power transmission. For very high‑speed applications, verify that the rotational speed does not exceed the manufacturer’s recommended limits.
