Clamping sleeves can be adapted to any space

A Roemheld product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Jan 3, 2008

The Kostyrka clamping sleeve offers a made-to-order fit for every application and lasting reliability and repeatability so it can simply be installed and then forgotten.

The original Kostyrka clamping sleeve continues to dominate the European mechanical engineering market as it offers a made-to-order fit for every application and lasting reliability and repeatability so it can simply be installed and then forgotten.

Only available in the UK from Roemheld, the Kostyrka clamping sleeve operates on a very simple clamping principle using flexible bushes made from a metal-plastic composite.

These are axially held in housings that surround the part, and then clamp it, by applying oil pressure to the sleeve jacket.

The oil pressure is converted without any loss or reaction into a radially acting force which clamps without affecting the piece.

The sleeves spring back to their starting position once the oil pressure is removed.

This enables these computer programmable, compact sleeves to exert extremely high holding forces and to clamp and unclamp at lightning speed.

Kostyrka clamping sleeves are available with an inner diameter from 6 to 1500mm plus and are designed for clamping forces up to 600bar.

As they are specially made, they can be adapted to any installation space and are available in a wide range of versions for absorbing the different torques generated by linear, rotary, axial and tangential clamping forces.
