Norgren MC150MH2 Shock Absorbers - 25M cycles
Part Number: MC150MH2
Quick Summary
Norgren MC150MH2 shock absorbers deliver maintenance-free damping for pneumatic cylinder end covers in automated production lines. Manufacturers often struggle with unexpected wear and rising maintenance costs as cycles accumulate; this model offers up to 25 million cycles with very low rod return force. Note that explicit SIL, CE, or IP rating details aren’t listed in the data; verify these certifications in the official datasheet to ensure full regulatory alignment. Designed for direct mounting into end covers of pneumatic cylinders (up to 7 bar), they save space and simplify installation. This self-contained hydraulic option supports predictable performance, extended life, and easier maintenance planning in demanding automation environments. The result is a robust solution that pairs with standard IMI Norgren cylinders for seamless integration in a wide range of applications.

Maintenance-free, self-contained hydraulic components reduce external plumbing and maintenance downtime. This translates to higher line uptime and improved production throughput. Highest cycle lifetime up to 25 million cycles means lower replacement costs and longer asset life in high-cycle automation, enabling more reliable throughput and predictable maintenance planning. Extremely low rod return force improves stability and reduces actuator load, supporting smoother operation and energy efficiency in fast, repetitive cycles. Direct mounting into end covers up to 7 bar saves space and simplifies retrofits, enabling OEMs to fit compact machinery without sacrificing performance. Integral positive stop provides repeatable end positioning, enhancing process control, safety, and regulatory compliance in automated lines. The steel body with black oxide finish delivers rugged durability, while seamless compatibility with the Ace series and IMI Norgren ecosystem simplifies sourcing and system integration.

FAQs
Install MC150MH2 by directly mounting into the end cover of a compatible pneumatic cylinder rated up to 7 bar. Ensure the mount is clean, aligned, and free of debris; snug the fasteners to specification, then cycle gently to verify smooth operation and absence of binding. Verify the supply pressure remains within 0–7 bar and confirm the integral positive stop engages during the end stroke.
The device is rated for up to 25 million cycles under normal operating conditions. Real-world life depends on duty cycle, temperature, and mounting accuracy; to maximize life, maintain clean mounting surfaces, avoid side loads, and ensure consistent lubrication-free operation.
Yes, the design offers extremely low rod return force and a maintenance-free hydraulic core, which minimizes dynamic load and reduces actuator wear at high speeds. For rapid cycles, confirm end-cover mounting compatibility and keep within 7 bar maximum pressure while accounting for installation constraints.
Certification details are not included in the provided data. Please consult the official datasheet or supplier for SIL, CE, or IP ratings and any region-specific regulatory compliance required for your application to ensure full conformity.
By eliminating regular maintenance, extending cycle life, and simplifying installation, facilities can reduce downtime and spare parts costs. The up-to-25-million-cycle life supports longer asset intervals and more predictable budgeting, especially in high-cycle automation environments, lowering total cost of ownership over the equipment lifecycle.
