The clamp collar replace in their simplicity the previous types of collars stopped. The first ever applied in the earliest modern industries, were composed of metal rings with set screws protruding: This feature made them extremely dangerous to the user, which could prejudice tangled victim of serious accidents. After that they were replaced with models with grub screws collected: definitely safer for the user, they ensured a certain seal only if installed on drive shafts made of softer materials. Anyway, as time goes by, they damaged the tree both functionally and aesthetically. They can be easily fitted and adjusted, compressed by socket head cap screws so there are no risk to the user. If there are also no aesthetic and functional damage, at full capacity, the absence of large fixing allows the use on any type of tree, regardless of material's type that collar is made of. Despite the clamp applies a pressure such as to make the collar resistant to large and constant loads, bumps could move it on the shaft. When it comes to processes that pose a risk of deviations, to overcome such problems it is sufficient to bundle multiple collars or add a shock-absorber. These absorb the shock load and also help to reduce the noise of the entire process.">The first clamp collar, produced by Ruland Manufacturing, appear in the course of the Second World War between the components for the war's instruments and for pointing devices. If today are considered to be common, at that time they were high-tech devices to keep secrets with the enemies to mantain advantage of amenities.
