Utilising the movement of fluid, forced from one chamber to another, Wixroyd Torque Dampers enhance the movement and quality touch and feel of small lids, drawers, panels and covers in many applications. You won't often see the torque damper, but instead feel and experience the smooth and sleek controlled motion they provide. Their application includes; music players, sweet displays, vending machines, lids and stay, and even the non-slamming toilet seat!

Creates a smooth movement and dampening in applications. Dampening torque up to 40 gf.cm
Symmetric torque friction hinges with a torque of 0,05 to 3,80 Nm.
To calculate the torque for your application, the following measurements are necessary:
t (torque) = w x 0.5 x h
h = length from pivot point to end of lid (cm)
w = weight of the lid (Kg)
Torque force stated per product (see individual product pages), is the maximum torque to which the specified part can be exposed before the dampening force yields and hence dampening is overcome.
