Norgren RA/8250/M/125 ISO tie rod cylinder - ISO 15552

The ISO 15552 standardization of the RA/8000/M family enables rapid cross-vendor interchangeability, cutting spare-parts inventory and reducing downtime during line changes. Engineers appreciate consistent mounting patterns, proven seals, and common porting across vendors, which shortens commissioning and improves predictability in control integration. In packaging, material handling, and automation lines, this translates to faster installation and reliable performance. With a 250 mm bore and 125 mm stroke, the cylinder delivers up to 29,436 N of theoretical force, supporting heavy clamping and long-stroke positioning without sacrificing speed. This capability is particularly valuable in high-throughput pick-and-place and tooling actions common in modern manufacturing. Adjustable cushioning provides controlled deceleration at end-of-stroke, minimizing shock to loads and adjacent equipment, while its magnetic piston enables straightforward position sensing and compatibility with reed-switch solutions for PLC interfacing. The durable anodised aluminium barrel paired with a martensitic stainless steel piston rod offers corrosion resistance and wear durability, reducing maintenance frequency in harsh environments. An extensive range of mountings—front/rear stud, flange, clevis, foot, and switch brackets—facilitates precise alignment and fast retrofits on 250 mm bore frames. Operating pressure of 1–10 bar and a temperature range of -10 to 80 C ensure compatibility with a wide array of pneumatic systems, valves, and control architectures across industries such as packaging, automation, and material handling.
