5/16 Long Driveshaft Clamp

The 5/16 long driveshaft clamp is a carbon steel U clamp for fastening in driveshaft assemblies that require nominal diameter 5/16 and greater reach than the short version. It is sold by unit and works with inch thread, so it must be combined with compatible nuts and the correct housing. Its main difference from the 5/16 short driveshaft clamp is the useful length: this long version helps when the assembly needs more thread travel or greater pass-through height, without changing diameter. Compared with 3/8 clamps, it keeps a smaller diameter and should not be interchanged without checking the yoke or the part where it is installed. It is a useful reference for transmission maintenance, agricultural machinery, work vehicles and special fastener replacement where the buyer needs to identify diameter and length before requesting a price.

Selection guide

• Select this reference if the assembly uses 5/16 diameter and needs the long version.
• If the clamp protrudes too much or interferes with rotation, review the 5/16 short version.
• Confirm that the thread is compatible with the existing nuts before installation.
• For replacements, compare the new clamp with the removed part before final tightening.

Installation recommendations

• Remove grease, rust or residue from bearing surfaces before mounting.
• Present the clamp without forcing it to confirm that it enters freely into the housing.
• Tighten both sides alternately to avoid assembly misalignment.
• Do not cut or modify the thread if the length does not match; request the correct version.
• Verify that the driveshaft rotates without rubbing after installation.
