Aerospace on show in London

For more than 30 years, RA Rodriguez has been providing full engineering support to aerospace companies. Indeed its aerospace products are fitted to almost all military and civil aircraft in the western world, including many spacecraft. They are also used in many other leading edge technologies such as optical sighting systems, laser range finding and semiconductor production. RA Rodriguez is marking its first appearance at the DSEi exhibition with a comprehensive display of its hallmark range of thin section bearings from Kaydon. The main focus will be on the Reali-Slim range, readily available as fit-and-forget military spares, and on custom aerospace components. Minimum space, very light weight and low torque are the key design credentials synonymous with Kaydon Reali-Slim. This ever-popular range is now available in an expanded range of metric sizes with bores ranging from 20 to 369mm in diameter in three different cross-sectional sizes of 8, 13 and 20mm square. Each bore size and cross-section is available in radial contact, angular contact and four-point contact ball construction. In total, RA Rodriguez now stocks more than 200 metric types and sizes. This metric series complements the long established range of inch size Reali-Slim bearings in bore sizes ranging from 1 to 40in in seven different cross-sectional sizes ranging from 0.1875 to 1in square. Double sealed bearings are also available in five of these sizes. In addition to the supply and support of aerospace products, RA Rodriguez also provides a range of engineering services. As well as application engineering, the company is regularly consulted on special bearing design and development. It also undertakes bearing subassembly work and self-lube relining for military parts. Warehousing and stock supply management, kit-marshalling, labelling and JIT supply are services in which the company is well practised. RA Rodriguez will be on Stand 721a at DSEi, which will be held at Excel London from 13th to 16th September 2005. Request free introductory details about products from RA Rodriguez....
