Ultra-compact length delivers substantial space savings, enabling more flexible layouts and easier retrofit in existing lines. This translates to reduced machine height, simplified mounting, and a faster time-to-market for new automation cells. In practice, engineers can deploy RM/92016/JM/20 in tight pick-and-place setups where every millimeter of clearance matters, while maintaining reliable actuation across common production environments. The low-friction, long-life seal design reduces wear, cut maintenance costs, and extends cycling life for high-duty applications in automotive, electronics, and packaging lines. This translates to lower total cost of ownership and fewer unscheduled downtime events. The fully non-corrodible specification protects performance in challenging environments, decreasing replacement intervals and ensuring consistent force delivery. Magnetic piston enables straightforward sensing and integration with existing control systems, boosting repeatability and simplifying installation in PLC- or microcontroller-based setups. The cylinder’s 16 mm bore and 20 mm stroke deliver predictable stroke profiles with a 1–10 bar operating window, ensuring stable motion in compressed-air systems. With M5 port sizing and no internal cushioning, setup is simple and compatible with a wide range of fittings, while users can plan external damping or speed control if dynamic loads require it. This combination makes RM/92016/JM/20 a practical choice for OEMs targeting compact, reliable, and easy-to-maintain linear actuation in space-constrained machinery.

FAQs
Install using standard M5 fittings compatible with the 16 mm bore cylinder. Align the piston rod to prevent side loading, mount using the built-in pattern, and verify that there is no end-of-stroke cushioning installed. Ensure supply air is clean and within the 1–10 bar range to achieve the rated 121 N thrust.
The cylinder operates from 1–10 bar and delivers a theoretical force of 121 N with a 16 mm bore and 20 mm stroke. It is designed for fast, repeatable motion with a magnetic piston for sensor integration, and an operating temperature range of -5 to 80 °C. No cushioning is provided, so for high-speed cycles consider external flow control or speed adjustments.
Yes. One of its key advantages is an ultra-compact length—roughly one third the size of a comparable ISO/VDMA model—making it well suited for tight installations while still delivering reliable 16 mm bore actuation with magnetic sensing capability.
Certification details vary by region. This model line commonly aligns with CE compliance, and Norgren supports sensor-ready, magnet-equipped variants suitable for SIL-conscious control systems. Always verify the exact status from the latest datasheet for your market and application.
The design features low-friction, long-life seals and a fully non-corrodible construction, reducing wear and maintenance intervals. The anodised aluminium barrel and stainless steel piston rod resist environmental exposure, contributing to extended lifecycle and stable performance between service intervals.
