Norgren RM/92016/M/85 Compact Cylinder - Magnetic
Part Number: RM/92016/M/85
Quick Summary
The Norgren RM/92016/M/85 is a compact double-acting cylinder designed for precise linear actuation in automation and machine tending applications. Engineers often wrestle with space limits and seal wear, and this model addresses those challenges with a third of a typical ISO/VDMA length. Its magnetic piston enables full control-system compatibility, while the anodised aluminium chamber and stainless steel piston rod deliver lasting performance in tough environments. Note: Certifications such as CE and IP ratings are common expectations in industrial pneumatic actuators; verify exact marks on the datasheet. With a wide operating window of -5 to 80°C and 1–10 bar supply, you gain predictable cycle times, lower maintenance, and scalable automation across multiple lines.

FAQs
Install using a compatible manifold with M5 threads, ensuring clean, dry air and proper alignment to avoid side loading. The 16 mm bore and 85 mm stroke integrate directly with standard fixtures, while standard mounting brackets keep the actuator secure. Check that the line routing supports the M5 connection and that the stroke aligns with end-of-travel stops.
The cylinder operates at 1–10 bar and -5 to 80 °C. Exceeding these ranges can degrade seal life and actuation consistency. With a 16 mm bore and a theoretical 121 N thrust, expect reliable cycle times and repeatable motion within specified limits. Ensure air supply quality and temperature control meet the product’s requirements.
Yes. Its compact length and magnetic piston support sensor feedback and easy control integration, while 121 N of force provides reliable actuation for small tooling. The M5 port suits compact manifolds, making it well-suited for tight-pack automation, end-of-line tooling, and light gripping tasks on packaging or assembly lines.
The provided data does not list specific certifications. Check the datasheet for CE, IP, SIL or other marks applicable to your region and industry. In practice, verify the exact compliance on the product page or with the supplier to ensure regulatory alignment before deployment in regulated environments.
Keep the compressed air clean and dry to protect seals and ensure smooth operation. The product uses low-friction seals and a magnetic piston, which aids longevity and predictable wear. Regularly inspect the piston rod and barrel for wear or corrosion, and verify that mounting hardware remains secure to prevent misalignment.
