The RM/92040/M/40 delivers a compact double-acting cylinder with a 40 mm bore, enabling high-force actuation in tight spaces. This streamlined form reduces overall footprint while preserving stroke length, making it ideal for dense automation lines and service-friendly installations. A low-friction, long-life seal design minimizes leakage and wear, translating to lower maintenance costs and longer cycle life in continuous operation. Combined with a stainless steel piston rod and anodised aluminium barrel, the unit resists wear and corrosion in typical factory environments. The fully non-corrodible specification supports tough environments, while the magnetic piston offers full control-system versatility with proximity or reed switches. This enables straightforward sensing and safer, more reliable automation without intrusive wiring. The included fittings and standard port size G1/8 streamline installation, with mountings such as front/rear BG flange or foot mounting to fit numerous configurations. The RM/92040/M/40 is part of a family (RM/92000/M range) designed for easy cross-compatibility with existing lines. From a practical perspective, designers benefit from the model's predicted 754 N theoretical force at rated conditions and its operation across -5 to 80 C and 1-10 bar. The compact length, roughly one third of a typical ISO/VDMA equivalent, also reduces assembly time and spare-part needs.

FAQs
Use the mounting options shown in the data: BG front/rear flange mounting (QM/90040/22), foot mounting (QM/90040/21), piston rod clevis mounting (QM/57020/25), stud/adaptor mounting (M/P1710/22) or nut-style mounting (M/P1501/60). For attaching F-mounts to the piston rod, the M/P1710/22 adaptor is recommended. Ensure alignment and secure fasteners before air connection.
Key specs include: 40 mm cylinder diameter, 40 mm stroke, G1/8 port size, 1–10 bar operating pressure, compressed air medium, magnetic piston, and a theoretical force of 754 N. Operating temperature ranges from -5 to 80 °C. The unit uses an anodised aluminium barrel with a stainless steel piston rod and offers no cushioning.
Yes, its compact length and 40 mm bore deliver strong actuation in tight spaces. The magnetic piston enables easy sensing and integration with reed switches, while the robust materials support reliable, repetitive pick-and-place cycles. When space and repeatability matter, this model provides a balanced combination of force, responsiveness, and sensor compatibility.
The RM/92040/M/40 is designed for European use with CE considerations and supports compatibility with SIL-rated safety circuits when paired with appropriate control systems. For full regulatory confirmation, consult the provided datasheet and ensure integration with compliant peripherals and mounting hardware.
The long-life, low-friction seal design reduces wear and maintenance intervals, while corrosion-resistant materials (anodised housing and stainless steel rod) extend service life in harsh environments. Magnetic sensing simplifies automation integration, decreasing downtime and enabling predictive maintenance through reliable position feedback.
