ABSTRACT:
A clamp for a cylindrical workpiece, such as a shaft, pipe, cable or the like. The clamp includes a threaded sleeve for circumferentially engaging the workpiece and at least one correspondingly threaded nut in threaded engagement on the sleeve for engaging either another nut on the sleeve or a stationary workpiece integrally formed with the sleeve. The sleeve is provided with a shallow thread configuration having a flank angle which produces a radial force component that exceeds the axial force component when the nut is tightened, thereby imparting a uniform radial clamping force along the entire extent of the threaded engagement.
