Brewing Success: Stainless Steel Shaft Collars Eliminate Problems with Corrosion Contamination in Brewery Applications


Climax shaft collars, manufactured from T316 stainless steel, provide a shaft locking solution that eliminates the likelihood of contamination from corrosion in an environment where frequent wash-downs are common and downtime is costly.

Today, there are approximately 9,700 breweries located in the United States, according to the Brewers Association website (brewersassociation.org). It is estimated that by the end of 2032, the market value of the beer industry in the United States will be $155 billion.

Corrosion contamination can be a challenge in the beer and ale industry, leading to product spoilage, health hazards, and negatively impacting flavor. Choosing corrosion-resistant materials, such as stainless steel, can help prevent contamination limiting downtime and profit loss.

Climax offers a solution to the corrosion problems that persist at breweries. Climax shaft collars manufactured from 316 stainless steel are extremely corrosion-resistant, making them ideal for applications in the harsh environment of the brewing industry. Since stainless steel is easy to sanitize, inert to beer and corrosion, and has proven durability, it is considered the industry standard for brewing facilities worldwide.

Climax provides a comprehensive offering in both two-piece clamping collars (CR2C-Series) and set screw collars (CRC-Series) styles, readily available for shipment from stock in imperial and metric sizes. For more information on how T316 stainless steel shaft collars can alleviate corrosion contamination in breweries, food processing systems or bottling facilities, contact Climax to speak with our engineering team.

Climax carries an extensive inventory of shaft collars, rigid couplings, and keyless locking devices. We have the capability to engineer custom designs tailored to fit your specific application challenge.
