What is the GAM EASY-Clamp system?



Because the bore tolerances on couplings are so precise, installing or un-installing a servo coupling can be very difficult.  In fact, machine builders have been known to wedge screw drivers in the coupling hubs to help open the bores up.  Not only is this unsafe but the coupling and/or shafts can be damaged.
Coupling Installation

A better engineered solution is the EASY-Clamp system which is found on many GAM couplings.  This system allows easy installation without the need for additional tools (screw drivers included).  The EASY-Clamp pin is located just above the clamping bolt.

To engage the system, simply loosen the clamping bolt until it backs out and hits the pin.  This expands the clamping head making installation or un-installation quick and easy.

Infographic: What makes GAM couplings special?
GAM Couplings

1.  A long history of coupling performance and quality.  Fact.  GAM introduced the bellows coupling to the North American Market.
2.  Easy Clamp System.  For easy coupling installation.
3.  Balanced hubs.  Balancing element allow for speeds up to 20,000 RPM.
4.  Brass Wire Press Fit Connection.  This bellows hub connection method was patented in 1974. 
5.  Specs you can believe in.  
6.  Huge coupling product range
7.  Customized for your application.  All of GAM couplings are custom machined per order.
8.  Deliveries you can count on.  98.1% of all couplings shipped on time or early since 2005.  Same day shipments are possible.
9.  Every coupling inspected.
10.  Excellent customer service and support.
