Custom-designed shaft collars and rigid couplings that solve specific mechanical drive or packaging system and conveyor component compatibility issues are available from Stafford Manufacturing Corp.
Stafford custom shaft collars and couplings can be manufactured to precise design requirements from a wide range of materials in a variety of configurations with special bore features such as hex, square, or round shapes and keyways including hinges and threads. Exterior modifications can include flats, slots, knurls, laser etching, tapped through-holes, flanges, cams, target inserts, levers and related parts to meet OEM specifications.
Supplied in prototype through production quantities, Stafford custom shaft collars and couplings can be machined from alloy steels, stainless alloys, titanium, aluminum with anodizing in bright colors, brass, bronze, Delrin and other materials. Sizes can range from 1/8” to 12” ID with dimensional tolerances of < 0.001” and < 0.001” T.I.R. concentricity, depending upon configuration, and 3D models can be provided for proof-of-concept testing.

alloy steels
Steel containing specified quantities of alloying elements (other than carbon and the commonly accepted amounts of manganese, sulfur and phosphorus) added to cause changes in the metal’s mechanical and/or physical properties. Principal alloying elements are nickel, chromium, molybdenum and silicon. Some grades of alloy steels contain one or more of these elements: vanadium, boron, lead and copper.
