LORD MR Damper
RD-8040-1, Short Stroke
RD-8041-1, Long Stroke
Our RD-8040-1 (Short Stroke) and RD-8041-1 (Long Stroke) MR Dampers are compact magneto-rheological fluid dampers unsurpassed in the combination of controllability, responsiveness and energy density. As a magnetic field is applied to LORD MR fluid inside the monotube housing, the damping characteristics of the fluid increase with practically infinite precision and in under 10-millisecond response time. Featuring straightforward controls, simple design, and quiet operation, our MR dampers were designed for seat suspensions, but can be adapted to a wide variety of applications.
