5 x 8 x 1.5mm Collar for Small Rotating Parts

This compact shaft collar is intended as an RC-scale accessory for helicopter assemblies and other small rotating systems. The 5 x 8 x 1.5mm specification defines the bore, external diameter and thickness, so it is suitable where short axial spacing or a fixed shaft stop is required.

In use the collar provides a reliable mechanical stop and creates a repeatable positioning point for shafts and linkages. It helps preserve stack-up integrity between gears, bearings and spacers, aiding consistent play and preload when set up correctly.

Installation is straightforward: slide the collar to the desired location on the shaft and secure with your chosen method. When tuning rotorhead geometry or setting bearing preload, use the collar as a benchmark and confirm axial clearance after the final lock-up.

Hobby tips: ensure the bore equals your shaft size before fitting, inspect for burrs on mating parts, and re-check alignment after initial running. This product description applies to RC-scale model usage only.

By providing a fixed axial stop, the collar lets you reproduce spacing between bearings and gears precisely, which can stabilise play and preload across rotorhead components.
Common securing choices include set screws, interference fits or complementary retaining hardware; pick the method that suits your shaft finish and load requirements.
Check that the bore is correct for your shaft, watch for sharp edges that could damage seals or bearings, and confirm assembly alignment after a brief test operation.
