Norgren KM/8026/M/175 Pneumatic Cylinder - ISO 6432

Part Number: KM/8026/M/175
Manufacturer
Norgren
Part number
KM/8026/M/175

Quick Summary

KM/8026/M/175 is a corrosion-resistant, double-acting pneumatic cylinder used in food-grade automation. Operators often struggle with corrosion, sanitation, and reliable cushioning on long production runs. Although SIL, CE, and IP ratings are not listed in the data, the unit follows ISO 6432 mounting and uses a stainless steel barrel with a magnetic piston for reliable position sensing in hygienic environments. With adjustable cushioning, a G1/8 port and a 25 mm bore, it installs quickly in compact spaces while delivering predictable stroke and force. The 175 mm stroke extends reach in tight lines, enabling efficient actuation without compromising cleanability.

FAQs

KM/8026/M/175 uses standard ISO 6432 mounting, a 25 mm bore, and a G1/8 port. For retrofit projects, confirm compatible mounting brackets and ensure clean, dry compressed air supply within 1–10 bar. Use the included nose mounting nut and piston rod locknut to secure alignment, and verify the stroke length fits the available travel on existing fixtures.
Key specs include a 25 mm cylinder diameter, 175 mm stroke, double-acting operation, and a theoretical force of 294 N. It operates from 1 to 10 bar and tolerates -10 to 80 °C (14 to 176 °F). Port size is G1/8, and it features adjustable cushioning with a magnetic piston for position sensing.
Yes. The unit employs a stainless steel barrel (X5 Cr Ni 18 10, 1.4301) and a corrosion-resistant piston rod (1.4305), aligning with sanitary manufacturing needs. The magnetic piston supports non-contact sensing, aiding clean-in-place routines and reducing contamination risks in hygienic environments.
The cylinder offers adjustable cushioning to tailor impact forces and reduce wear on connected machinery. It includes a magnetic piston as standard to enable straightforward position feedback for control systems. This combination supports reliable, repeatable cycling and easier integration with PLCs and sensors in automation projects.
Maintenance is typically reduced by the stainless steel construction and corrosion resistance, which extend component life in harsh or clean environments. The magnetic piston enables precise feedback with minimal wiring, improving uptime and process reliability. Overall, higher line uptime and lower replacement cost contribute to a favorable return on investment over the cylinder’s operating life.
