Nok Corporation
Nok Conductive Ring

Manufacturer: Nok.
Features
- The shaft and housing are conducted, and electromagnetic noise generation due to charging of the shaft and electrolytic corrosion of the bearing part are suppressed.
- Compared to conventional structures (earth brushes, knuckle grounds, etc.), it is possible to save space and reduce costs.
- Conductivity can be ensured even in the dynamic environment associated with rotation.
