Eliminates keys, splines and tapered shaft ends.
- Slip-fit components for keyless connections.
Hydraulically applied clamp pressure for high torque capacity.
Allows for the use of smaller diameter shafts.
Reduces overhung moment.
Custom designs to fit your envelope and shaft ends.
Patented design.

Keys and splines produce stress concentrations in machine shafts. Tapered shafts ends and bores are expensive to produce and require special tooling. The Riverhawk Hydraulic Clamp Ring allows designs using straight, cylindrical, slip fit surfaces eliminating stress concentrations and reducing costs.

High squeeze capability of the Riverhawk Hydraulic Clamp Ring translates into smaller shafting requirements. Smaller shafts translate into smaller bearing requirements reducing overall cost and increase design flexibility.

In high power density applications it is the total overhung moment that impacts rotordynamics. The Riverhawk Hydraulic Clamp Ring allows for designs with smaller shafts and shorter interfaces. These factors translate into reduced overall overhung moment.
