The damping direction of the flat constructive ACE rotary damper FDT with robust steel body is two-sided rotation. It can brake directly in the pivot point of the square receptacle. ACE rotary dampers are maintenance-free and ready-to-install.
Lifetime 50,000 cycles (1 cycle = 360° left-hand, 360° right-hand). Even after this time, the dampers still produce over approx. 80 % of their original damping moment. The service life may be significantly higher or lower, depending on the application.
Operating temperature range -10 °C to +60 °C
Material Outer body: steel; Output shaft sleeve: nylon
Mounting in any position
Technical Notes
Mounting information
No axial or radial forces may be induced via the shaft.
Safety information
Do not use rotary dampers as supports. Provide an external guide or support.
On request
Special accessories available on request.
Application Areas

conveyor systems
crane systems
These compact, cost-effective machine elements are ideal as end position dampers in linear axes, in toolmaking and tool machines, in hydraulic and pneumatic equipment, handling equipment and other applications.
Application Examples
Rotary Dampers - FDT
Opening and closing mechanisms for machine protection hoods
To exclude the possibility of injury when using bread slicing machines on self-service counters, the automatic bread slicing process does not start until the flap of the modern machine is closed. To simplify the operation and to thereby increase a...
Steering stabilisation for toboggans and sport vehicles
In this innovative tobogganing vehicle called Pistenbock-Cross rotation dampers from ACE come into action. These help to effectively damen unexpected steering turns and smooth the overall process to improve driving comfort and safety. Two FDT rota...
