Description
Flexible rubber cuffs protect moving machine parts from dust, dirt, and the like. The cuff minimizes the risk of downtime and extends the machine’s lifespan. Additionally, the cuff improves the working environment and safety by protecting operators and others from personal injury caused by contact with the moving machine parts.
For many constructions, it can be advantageous to use a bellows type that takes up minimal space in compressed state. Rubber disc bellows are made of vulcanized rubber discs and fill up very little space when folded, compared to the extension length that can be achieved: The difference between the maximum length (Lmax) and minimum length (Lmin) is large.
Rubber disc bearings are manufactured from chlorosulfonyl-polyethylene (CSM), which has a hardness of 65 Shore A. The color is black, and the operating temperature ranges between -20 °C and +110 °C. The material is reasonably resistant to oil and chemicals and extremely weather-resistant.
