MCL-24-F Ruland MCL-24-F, 24mm One-Piece Shaft Collar, Black Oxide Steel, Clamp Style, 45mm OD, 15mm Width Description Ruland MCL-24-F is a one-piece shaft collar with a 24mm bore, 45mm OD, and 15mm width. The clamp style design does not mar the shaft, is easy to remove, and is indefinitely adjustable. It is commonly used for guiding, spacing, stopping, mounting, and component alignment. Equipment manufacturers benefit from the tightly controlled face to bore perpendicularity (TIR of ≤ .05mm). Perpendicularity is critical for alignment when the shaft collar is used as a load bearing face, mechanical stop, or for mounting components such as gears or bearings. Proprietary processes have been developed by Ruland to maintain superior fit, finish, and holding power. MCL-24-F is stamped with the Ruland name and bore size for ease of identification. Forged screws test beyond DIN 912 12.9 standards to ensure maximum holding power. MCL-24-F is manufactured from solid bar stock sourced from select North American mills and machined to a fine burr free finish. Ruland uses 1215 lead-free steel with a proprietary black oxide finish that produces a fine glossy finish while increasing holding power and resisting corrosion. MCL-24-F is RoHS3 and REACH compliant and manufactured in our Marlborough, MA factory under strict controls using proprietary processes.
