AIR SHAFT SEAL ENGINEERING SPECIFICATIONS |
- SLIP-ON INSTALLATION
- HIGH HEAT DISSIPATION
- NO SHAFT DRILLING
- BALANCED AIR PRESSURE
- FLEXIBLE APPLICATION
- FACTORY TESTED
The air shaft seal TRANSMITS AIR from the supply to the rotating members of air clutches and air brakes making possible new applications of air clutches and air brakes previously considered impractical for closed-end shafts. SLIP-ON INSTALLATION eliminates long rifle drilling of air passages in shafts and permits easy installation. Internal drag is held at a minimum through a BALANCED AIR PRESSURE DESIGN that is not affected by an increase in air pressure. This design feature permits higher operating speeds and assures longer life. The rotating rings are micro-lapped for dependable, leakproof operation and the stationary seals of carbon graphite are self seating to insure sealing. HIGH HEAT DISSIPATION is obtained by placing fins on the rotating rings resulting in cooler operation. All Carlson Air shaft seals are tested before shipment to assure each unit is ready for installation when received by the customer.
