Reliable hydraulic performance in demanding steel processing environments

The 600D Series Rotary Union is specifically engineered for clamping and unclamping applications in steel strip down coilers. Designed for high-speed and high-pressure operation, it delivers reliable hydraulic performance, superior sealing, and long service life in demanding steel processing environments.

Key features

Two independent flow path designs, sealed and supported for clamp-cycle duty

The 600D Series combines two independently separated flow paths with a sealing and bearing arrangement built for the repeated clamp and unclamp cycles of a down coiler.

Multi flow individual path design

Individual flow paths provide reliable separation and transfer of multiple media.

Self supported sealing

Self-supported sealing design provides reliable sealing performance during operation.

Dynamic elastomeric sealing

Dynamic elastomeric sealing provides effective sealing for continuous rotary operation.

Hardened sealing rotor

Hardened sealing rotor provides improved wear resistance and longer service life.

Widely spaced ball bearings

Widely spaced ball bearings help absorb side loads and provide stable operation.

Built for repeated clamp & unclamp cycles

Hydraulic sealing that holds up under continuous cycling

A down coiler's clamping mechanism cycles continuously as strip is coiled and released — the union's sealing and bearing arrangement is built to sustain that cycling without degrading.

Two independent sealed passages, one for each side of the clamp circuit
  • Two independent paths for the clamp circuit

    Individual flow paths provide reliable separation and transfer of multiple media, keeping the clamp and unclamp hydraulic circuits fully isolated from each other.

  • Self-supported, dynamic elastomeric sealing

    Self-supported sealing design provides reliable sealing performance during operation, with dynamic elastomeric sealing and a hardened sealing rotor sustaining sealing performance across repeated high-pressure clamp cycles.

  • Widely spaced bearings absorb side load

    Widely spaced ball bearings help absorb side loads and provide stable operation, keeping the union aligned and sealed under the mechanical loads typical of coiler duty.
