Service kits for RM/900, 6"
The RM/960/330 uses a 6" bore to deliver substantial holding and pushing force, enabling high-speed, long-stroke applications with consistent accuracy. This translates to measurable business impact: improved cycle times and reduced downtime in conveyors and presses, supported by compatible mounting options and standard pneumatic fittings for rapid installation. The adjustable cushioning leverages controlled deceleration to minimize wear on guides and end stops, extending service life in high-cycle environments and lowering total cost of ownership. With a G1/2 port, the unit integrates easily into existing plant air systems, minimizing plumbing complexity and enabling quicker line changeovers. The anodised aluminium barrel and martensitic stainless steel piston rod provide corrosion resistance and durability in demanding environments, while the non-magnetic construction safeguards sensitive instrumentation nearby. Compatibility with the RM/900 range and available QM/960/00 service kits ensure long-term support, spare parts, and hassle-free maintenance.

FAQs
The RM/960/330 is designed with a robust tie-rod construction and compatible end caps that support a wide range of mounting configurations used in industry-standard pneumatic installations. Users benefit from flexible alignment, quick-fix mounting plates, and straightforward integration with common automation rigs, reducing setup time and ensuring repeatable positioning across multiple stations.
Operating pressure for the RM/960/330 is 2 to 10 bar (29 to 145 psi), and it utilizes a G1/2 port size for standard pneumatic connections. This combination supports reliable actuation across typical factory air supplies, while allowing easy hose and valve integration to deliver consistent force and stroke in demanding cycles.
With a 6" bore and 330 mm stroke delivering up to 10887 N of theoretical force, this cylinder excels in high-load pick-and-place, clamping, stamping, and long-travel positioning tasks. Its adjustable cushioning reduces impact, enabling longer life for guides and end stops, and making it ideal for continuous-cycle automation lines and material-handling systems.
The data provided does not list specific certifications. In typical industrial use, customers assess CE compliance, suitable IP ratings for environmental protection, and SIL considerations for safety-related functions. Always verify with the supplier and align with your facility’s regulatory requirements before deployment, especially in high-risk or regulated environments.
Service kits are available under QM/960/00 for RM/900, 6" cylinders, enabling streamlined parts replacement such as seals and cushions. Regular maintenance with these kits helps preserve cushion performance, seal integrity, and overall efficiency. Pairing these with the RM/900 family supports easier supplier stocking and faster field service when retrofits or replacements are needed.
