AST096-Through-bore Slip Rings - Through Bore Slip Ring

A slip ring is used in electromechanical systems that require continuous, unrestricted rotation while transferring power or signals between a stationary and rotating part. It's also known as a rotary electrical interface, collector, swivel, or commutator. Slip rings help improve overall system performance by simplifying the design and avoiding the use of fragile, dangling wires at moving joints.

A slip ring enables continuous 360° rotation while transferring power or data between stationary and rotating components. It’s also known as a rotary joint, commutator, collector, or electrical swivel. The AST096 is a compact slip ring capsule with a 96mm through-bore and 86mm outer diameter. Its central opening allows easy routing for hydraulics, pneumatics, or shaft mounting. Available in 6, 12, 18, and 24-circuit configurations, each handling up to 15 amps. The modular stacked-ring design allows flexible customization for various applications. Built with fiber brush contact technology for smooth and reliable signal transfer. This technology ensures low friction, minimal wear, and maintenance-free operation. No lubrication is needed, and it generates almost no wear debris. The AST096 delivers long service life and excellent performance in demanding environments.
