Clamp Shaft
SAF-Holland

The clamp shaft is a key interface component that secures and aligns clamp assemblies within the wheel-end or fifth‑wheel mating region. Its role centers on maintaining a firm, consistent grip between adjoining parts while allowing controlled movement where appropriate. Identified under the Component family, it supports reliable engagement of clamp systems that secure critical connections under load. VMRS code 021-001-135 places it in the clamp/shaft segment, assisting maintenance teams with accurate part classification. Category context reflects its function in SAF-Holland clamp assemblies that manage fastener alignment, hub engagement, and securing mechanisms. Benefits include stable clamping forces, reduced fatigue on mating surfaces, and dependable performance across vibration cycles and road shocks. In practical terms, it contributes to safer locking of interfaces, easier field replacement, and longer service life for assemblies subject to frequent engagement and dis-engagement in diverse operating conditions.
