Norgren RA/803050/M/50 ISOLine Tie Rod Cylinder - ISO 15552
Part Number: RA/803050/M/50
Quick Summary
ISOLine tie rod cylinder RA/803050/M/50 provides compact single-acting pneumatic actuation for precise linear motion in automation. When space is tight and mounting orientation varies, misalignment and wear can degrade performance, but this model uses polyurethane seals to reduce friction and extend life. It conforms to ISO 15552 (VDMA 24562 and NFE 49-003-1) and supports magnetic switch mounting for easy sensing and control. For system integrators, the 50 mm bore and 50 mm stroke pair well with standard 2–10 bar supply and G1/4 ports, delivering reliable, scalable performance across automated lines and packaging cells.

FAQs
RA/803050/M/50 supports multiple mounting configurations designed for 50 mm bore cylinders, including front or rear flange mounts, clevis, and swivel/offset arrangements. Compatible mounting accessories include QA/8050/21 foot mounts, QA/8050/22 front/rear flange kits, and MQ/series bracket adaptors. When selecting, match the bore and stroke to ensure correct alignment, and choose brackets that preserve the cylinder’s magnetic sensing and port accessibility. This versatility simplifies retrofits and new line upgrades, reduces custom fabrication, and accelerates commissioning.
The cylinder provides a theoretical force of 854 N, which supports reliable linear actuation for most standard industrial tasks such as clamping, lifting light loads, and actuating fixtures. In practice, you should account for dynamic loading, friction, and rod speed when selecting the cylinder for a given cycle. Pairing with appropriate brackets and air pressure within 2–10 bar ensures predictable force delivery and repeatable positioning in automation sequences.
Yes. The cylinder features adjustable cushioning to tailor deceleration and impact during end-stroke events, reducing mechanical stress on tooling and workpieces. This is particularly beneficial in high-cycle applications like pick-and-place, transfer systems, and precision clamping where consistent stop quality improves part handling and reduces downtime due to wear or misalignment.
This ISO 15552 compliant cylinder follows VDMA recommendations for standard cylinder geometry and mounting. For control integration, leverage the magnetic piston for straightforward position sensing via reed or solid-state switches and confirm compatibility with your PLC or valve manifold. Ensure enclosure or IP-rated protection when used in dusty or washdown environments, and verify that your electrical controls accommodate standard G1/4 port fittings and 50 mm bore geometry.
Begin with verifying port sizing (G1/4) and confirm supply pressure of 2–10 bar. Select compatible Mountings (for example QM/8050 series brackets) to match 50 mm bore, then install the adjustable cushioning and the magnetic switches if sensing is required. Use standard Pneufit C fittings where applicable to reduce leakage points. Regularly inspect the barrel and rod materials (aluminium and martensitic stainless steel) for signs of wear in harsh environments to extend service life and protect your automation investments.
