IMI Norgren RM/960/800 Cylinder - 6-inch bore, 800 mm stroke
Part Number: RM/960/800
Quick Summary
The IMI Norgren RM/960/800 cylinder delivers robust linear actuation for heavy industry and automation lines. Engineers often confront limited bore options and insufficient stroke length that constrain cycle times and throughput. This model aligns with common CE compliance expectations and offers IP-rated variants and SIL safety considerations as applicable to your region and configuration. With adjustable cushioning, a non-magnetic construction, and a rugged anodised barrel, it reduces downtime and energy use while delivering consistent, repeatable motion across demanding applications.

Service kits for RM/900, 6"
With a 6-inch bore and an 800 mm stroke, the RM/960/800 delivers up to 10887 N of theoretical force, enabling heavy-lift and long-stroke actuation in metalworking, clamping, and material handling. The tie-rod, double-acting design provides precise, repeatable motion with straightforward mounting options across multiple machines, reducing setup time and spare-parts inventory. Adjustable cushioning minimizes impact at the end of stroke, extending cylinder life and improving process stability for high-speed applications. The anodised aluminium barrel and martensitic stainless steel piston rod offer corrosion resistance and long-term reliability in challenging environments. A G1/2 port size and compatibility with the RM/900 range simplify installation and maintenance across existing pneumatic systems, while non-magnetic construction supports sensitive automation where magnetic interference must be avoided. These features collectively translate to higher line efficiency and lower total cost of ownership.

FAQs
For installation, ensure compatible tie-rod mounting hardware and proper end-caps are used to suit your machine frame. Verify porting to G1/2 fittings and align the bore axis with the load path to minimize bending moments. Leverage the RM/900 family mounting options and the available service kits QM/960/00 where applicable to simplify maintenance.
Key specs include a 6-inch bore, 800 mm stroke, double-acting operation, and an adjustable cushioning system. It operates on compressed air with a pressure range of 2 to 10 bar and uses a non-magnetic stainless piston rod. Theoretical force is up to 10887 N, with an anodised aluminium barrel for durability in industrial environments.
Yes. The combination of a long 800 mm stroke and robust 6-inch bore enables reliable actuation for packaging and material handling tasks, including push, lift, and clamp motions. The available mounting options and adjustable cushioning support high cycle reliability, while non-magnetic construction minimizes interference with nearby sensors.
Certification details such as CE marking, IP ratings, and SIL compatibility vary by configuration and region. Consult the datasheet and regional compliance requirements for your exact model configuration. In many industrial deployments, CE compliance and appropriate IP-rated variants are considered standard for pneumatic cylinders like RM/960/800.
Service kits are available for RM/900 series configurations, including QM/960/00 for RM/900, 6 inch variants. Regular maintenance should include inspection of seals, cushioning adjusters, and port fittings; refer to the datasheet for the exact service intervals and compatible spare parts to minimize downtime.
