The new RotoLam line of ball-bearing retainers consists of 46 standard retainers in eight diameters. The retainers are available as standalone replacements or as sets, including heat-treated pins and bushings. Users, such as die set and mold base manufacturers, will find that the pins and bushings are interchangeable with those used in the company’s keyless ball-bearing retainers. Designed to minimize wear and downtime, RotoLam ball-bearing retainers are interchangeable with other brands and feature Grade AAA1 ball bearings. They are precision-machined within the company’s U.S. manufacturing facilities, but are available at prices similar to units manufactured offshore.
