125 mm bore with 306 Nm torque delivers substantial actuation force for heavy-duty rotary tasks without expanding the machine footprint. This translates to faster cycles, higher repeatability, and reduced energy waste in high-load applications. It is well-suited for rotary indexing and clamping in packaging, assembly lines, and CNC fixtures. 90° rotation with adjustable cushioning provides controlled deceleration and reduced shock, extending seal life and minimizing wear. The cushioning can be tuned to match application speed and payload, delivering consistent positioning in multi-axis cells. This makes it easier to integrate with existing sensors and safety interlocks in automation systems. Double-acting operation, with G1/2 porting and standard 12 mm tubing access, simplifies pneumatic plumbing and reduces installation time. Push-in Pneufit C fittings and straight/90° swivel adapters are compatible options that support rapid commissioning. In practice, the right fittings cut leak potential and enable reliable cycle times. Durable aluminium construction (barrel and body) and polyurethane seals deliver long service life in demanding environments. The anodised components resist corrosion, while service kits (QM/162125/00) enable economical maintenance. When combined with warning switches (M/50 LSU) and tubing (PA2) options, you can build a complete, maintainable pneumatic subsystem. From a technical support standpoint, the M/162125/MI/90 aligns with IMI Norgren's M/162000 family, ensuring compatibility with mounting kits and service parts. CAD/Datasheet resources provide quick visual verification and replacement guidance. This ecosystem minimizes downtime and supports scalable automation investments.

FAQs
The actuator accepts front/rear flange mounting (125 mm bore), foot mounting (125 mm bore), and front/rear stud mounting configurations. These options simplify alignment in compact automation cells and support quick rework. When selecting a mount, ensure bore alignment and screw thread compatibility with your frame.
The unit uses a G1/2 port size for compressed air. Use Push-in Pneufit C fittings (12 mm tubing) for fast, leak-free connections. Kit options include a 90° swivel elbow and straight adapters. Confirm supply pressure between 1 and 10 bar and ensure clean, dry air to maximize lifecycle.
Designed for compressed air, it operates from -5 to 80 °C and 1 to 10 bar (14.5 to 145 psi). With an anodised aluminium barrel and body and polyurethane seals, the actuator maintains performance in fluctuating environments. Include adjustable cushioning to tailor deceleration and reduce shock in high-cycle applications.
Yes. It provides a 90° rotation in a double-acting configuration, with adjustable cushioning to control impact. The 125 mm bore and 306 Nm torque support rapid positioning in automation cells, while compatible fittings and mounting choices reduce installation time and ensure stable, repeatable motion under load.
Service kits for the M/162000 range (125 mm bore) are available (QM/162125/00). Regular inspection of seals (polyurethane) and cushions will extend life. Use compatible M/50 reed switch options for position sensing, and follow the CAD/Datasheet guidance for replacements and torque settings to preserve performance.
