Ethernet (1Gbps), Mil-Std-1553, HD-SDI, CANbus, and Fiber Optic (FORJ)

Contact Material

Gold-on-Gold fiber brush / Precious metal alloy

Housing Material

Heavy-duty Aluminum (6061-T6/7075) or Stainless Steel with chemical conversion coating

Operating Speed

Continuous rotation up to 250 RPM

Ingress Protection (IP)

IP65, IP66, or IP67 sealed variants available

Operating Temperature

-55 ° C to +85 ° C (Extended military range)

Shock & Vibration

Fully compliant with MIL-STD-810G and MIL-STD-167

Electromagnetic Shielding

MIL-STD-461 compliant EMI/EMC shielding

Rotational Life

≥ 50 million revolutions (maintenance-free)

Integrated Fluid Rotary Unions

Optional integration for hydraulic, pneumatic, or coolant lines

Technical Advantages

By utilizing advanced gold-on-gold multi-fiber brush technology, our slip rings minimize electrical noise and mechanical wear, eliminating the need for periodic field lubrication. This robust design guarantees an exceptionally high total cost of ownership (TCO) efficiency through a maintenance-free 50-million-revolution lifespan.

Having Doubts? Our FAQ

Can Frigate customize slip rings to include hydraulic or pneumatic lines?

Yes. Our turret slip rings can be fully integrated with multi-passage fluid rotary unions to transmit hydraulic fluids, pneumatic pressure, or liquid coolants alongside electrical power and high-frequency signals. 

How do your slip rings perform under heavy EMI/EMC conditions?

Our products are engineered with robust internal shielding and isolation barriers designed to meet strict MIL-STD-461 standards. This prevents cross-talk between high-current power lines and sensitive communication data links. 

What military standards are these slip rings validated against?

Frigate’s defense-grade slip rings are designed, tested, and certified to meet compliance for MIL-STD-810G (environmental, shock, and vibration), MIL-STD-461 (electromagnetic interference), and MIL-STD-167 (naval vibration). 

What is the typical maintenance cycle for gold-on-gold fiber brush systems?

Our advanced precious metal fiber brush technology is virtually maintenance-free. It does not require lubrication or debris cleaning over its rated operational life of up to 50 million revolutions, significantly lowering field downtime. 

How do we initiate a custom design review for a specific defense platform?

You can submit your technical parameter requirements and CAD files directly through our procurement portal. Our engineering team will review the specifications to provide a detailed Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and technical proposal.
