Z2X20 Rotary Joint for Tire Balancing Machines


Two-channel, carbon-graphite sealed, needle-bearing design for high-speed balancing duty

Overview


The Z2X20 rotary joint was designed specifically for the rubber and plastics industry, and finds its core application on tire dynamic balancing machines. Carbon-graphite seal rings handle the sealing duty while needle roller bearings support the rotor, enabling the very high rotational speeds that balancing machines demand. The joint is a two-channel design and — uniquely for this class of equipment — can pass the same medium at two different pressures, which matches the testing cycles used on tire balancers. Ruitus can confirm interface dimensions and pressure pairings against your machine model.

Frequently Asked Questions


1 What is the Z2X20 rotary joint, and why is it used on tire balancing machines?
The Z2X20 is a two-channel joint built for high-speed balancing duty in the rubber and plastics industry. Carbon-graphite seal rings handle the sealing while needle roller bearings support high rotational speeds, and the two channels pass the same medium at two different pressures — exactly what dual-pressure test cycles demand.
2 Can it replace an existing dual-channel joint on our balancing machine?
Yes — the detailed Z2X20 parameter sheet is available on request. Send a photo of the nameplate plus the mounting dimensions (bore, flange, thread) and we will confirm interchangeability within 24 hours.
