A broad overview of the RunRight rubber suspension product line is summarized below.

RSS A

  • Has 4 bore holes in the inner square and is designed to transmit alternating motions from the neutral position
  • A bolt through either two or all four of the bore holes can be used to mount a lever to either one or both sides of the unit
  • Manufactured with steel housings, aluminum inner squares, and standard Tensys® 10 rubber inserts for applications operating within a -40° to 180°F (-40° to 80°C) temperature range

RSS C

  • Has one central bore and can be positioned between 0° and 360°
  • Friction force of this unit guarantees a secure connection of the lever arms in any position
  • Manufactured with steel housings, aluminum inner squares, and standard Tensys® 10 rubber inserts for applications operating within a -40° to 180°F (-40° to 80°C) temperature range

RSS S

  • Perfect for square lever arms (Note: Arms must be at least 3 times inner square inside height)
  • Friction force is used to secure lever arms at any position within 360°
  • Manufactured with steel housings and inner squares, and standard Tensys® 10 rubber inserts for applications operating within a -40° to 180°F (-40° to 80°C) temperature range

RBS Clamps

  • A bolt through either two or all four of the bore holes can be used to mount a lever to either one or both sides of the unit
  • Manufactured with aluminum housings and inner squares, and standard Tensys® 10 rubber inserts for applications operating within a -40° to 180°F (-40° to 80°C) temperature range

RSR S

  • Perfect for square lever arms (Note: Arms must be at least 3 times inner square inside height)
  • Great for plus or minus angular motions, but not alternating motions across the neutral axis
  • Manufactured with aluminum housings, steel inner squares, and standard Tensys® 10 rubber inserts for applications operating within a -40° to 180°F (-40° to 80°C) temperature range

RBR Clamps

  • For positioning and securing all RSR suspension units using the frictional force created between the double clamps
  • These steel clamps are supplied separately and do not include bolts
  • Lovejoy recommends using two or more clamps on the longer RSR suspension units

RSF A
