The KM/8026/M/180 uses a 25 mm bore and 180 mm stroke within the ISO 6432 footprint, providing compact yet robust actuation. This standardized size reduces spare parts diversity and simplifies interchangeability across machines, cutting installation time and stocking costs. In packaging, assembly, and pick-and-place lines, you gain consistent stroke and rapid retrofit capability without re engineering mounts. A Stainless steel barrel (1.4301) and a hardened piston rod (1.4305) deliver high corrosion resistance and long life in washdown environments, minimizing rust and wear for extended service intervals. Magnetic piston as standard enables direct magnetic sensing for control systems, improving feedback reliability. Adjustable cushioning lets you tailor impact and speed to the application, reducing vibration and operator risk while extending cylinder life. Operating pressure of 1–10 bar and temperature range -10 to 80 °C cover typical plant air networks and refrigerated areas, reducing the need for multiple variants. G1/8 port and nose mounting nut with piston rod locknut provide easy installation and secure mounting, while the 304 stainless steel body supports CIP/SIP compatibility and acid resistance. Theoretical force of 294 N ensures reliable actuation for moderate loads, delivering predictable, repeatable motion across cycles.

FAQs
The KM/8026/M/180 follows the ISO 6432 footprint, making it compatible with standard clevis mounts and mounting plates used across automation cells. Use the G1/8 port for connections and secure the nose mounting nut and piston rod locknut to prevent loosening under dynamic loads. Verify bore alignment, cushion setting, and sensor placement to ensure reliable feedback without interference from nearby actuators.
This cylinder offers a theoretical force of 294 N at the rated operating pressure. It supports an operating pressure range of 1 to 10 bar and a temperature range of -10 to 80 °C, enabling stable performance in typical plant air networks and moderate-temperature processing areas. Use appropriate cushioning to tailor impact for your specific load profile.
Yes. The 25 mm bore cylinder employs 1.4301 stainless steel and 1.4305 piston rod materials, delivering high corrosion resistance suitable for washdown and CIP/SIP workflows. Magnetic piston enables easy non-contact sensing, and adjustable cushioning reduces splash and mechanical wear, supporting reliable cycles in hygienic, regulated environments.
The KM/8026/M/180 complies with ISO 6432 as its standard mounting and form factor. The magnetic piston feature supports reliable sensing in automation systems, and the stainless steel construction aligns with hygiene and corrosion resistance requirements common in food processing and pharmaceuticals. Always verify local regulatory requirements for your specific application.
Adjustable cushioning lets you tune impact, speed, and deceleration to match load dynamics, reducing transient loads and wear on end stops. This translates to fewer seal replacements and longer service intervals, lowering maintenance costs and improving machine uptime, which contributes to a faster return on investment in high-cycle automation lines.
