Overview

• RINGFEDER® Shrink Disc connections are suitable for securing all types of hubs onto shafts and axles replacing traditional shrink fits, keys and polygon connections, splined shafts
• Standard design for high transmission values
• Suitable for static, dynamic and impact loads
• Slitted inner ring low forces and pressures on hub and shaft
• Simplified manufacture only plain shaft and bore diameters with easily achieved surface finish and tolerances are required
• The RINGFEDER® shrink disc is free from any form fit
• Easy mounting with no steps, keyways, splines are required, therefore hubs can be located and locked at any point or angle on the shaft
• RINGFEDER® Shrink Discs use standard screws tightened with standard tools
• No additional machining or fitting work is required
• Short installation time results in cost savings particularly in serial production
• Easy removal after loosening the locking screws, the RINGFEDER® Shrink Disc will self release and the hub will move freely on the shaft
• Low susceptibility to contamination when the locking screws are tightened the functional contact surfaces are pressed firmly together and prevent the ingress of dirt and moisture
