Floating Joint, Stainless Steel Type JS Series

Caution
- See catalog for specification details.
- Product images may be representative images. Refer to the catalog for details.
Product Description
A stainless steel type floating joint that does not require centering.
[Features]
· A floating joint can absorb any "off-centering" or "loss of parallel accuracy" present between the cylinder and the driven body.
· A high level of machining accuracy is unnecessary. Dramatically reduces installation time.
· Compact and suitable for high tensile stresses.
· Long service life (with dust-proof cover).
· Rotating angle: ±5°.
· Operating pressure: Pneumatic cylinder (1 MPa or less). Hydraulic cylinder (3.5 MPa or less).
· Mounting: Basic type.
