Norgren RT/57225/MC/160 Roundline Cylinder - Magnetic Piston
Part Number: RT/57225/MC/160
Quick Summary
Norgren RT/57225/MC/160 Roundline Cylinder is a compact pneumatic actuator for precise linear motion in automation. Space constraints and inconsistent stroke lengths are common challenges engineers face when selecting cylinders, impacting cycle times and repeatability. Where applicable, CE compliance and robust IP-rated options are standard in the Roundline range, and many variants support SIL control integration to meet safety requirements. With stainless steel components, a magnetic piston, and a durable double-acting design, this model delivers reliable performance in harsh environments. Its compact form, compatibility with existing Norgren mounting accessories, and proven durability translate to lower maintenance costs across packaging, automotive, and general manufacturing lines.

Space-saving Roundline profile offers a compact footprint that fits in tight automation cells while delivering a full 25 mm bore and 160 mm stroke in a single unit. The business impact is clear: smaller footprints reduce machine footprint, enclosure size, and cabinet routing, accelerating installation in applications such as pick-and-place, packaging, and automated assembly. The durable stainless steel barrel and piston rod provide corrosion resistance and strength in challenging environments, extending service life and lowering maintenance costs. A standard magnetic piston enables easy position sensing and control integration with common sensors, reducing wiring complexity and enabling faster automation deployment. Buffer cushioning minimizes end-of-stroke impact and vibration, protecting seals and end caps for longer cycle life. Operating at 1–10 bar with temperatures from -10 to 80 °C and Rc1/8 ports, the Roundline series remains compatible with existing mounting patterns and Norgren accessories for quick deployment across production lines in packaging, automotive, and general manufacturing.

FAQs
This cylinder follows standard Roundline mounting patterns and uses a 25 mm bore with Rc1/8 ports. Compatibility with typical Norgren mounting accessories allows easy alignment with end brackets, clevis mounts, and adjustable brackets. For installation, ensure clean, dry compressed air at 1–10 bar, connect the Rc1/8 port to your supply lines, and position the sensor if you plan to use the magnetic piston for feedback. Verify clearance for stroke and end-of-stroke cushioning to avoid contact with adjacent components.
RT/57225/MC/160 operates within 1–10 bar (15–145 psi) and withstands temperatures from -10 to 80 °C (14 to 176 °F). This broad envelope supports use in many standard factory environments while maintaining performance in dynamic cycles and moderate washdown contexts with appropriate configuration.
Yes, it is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder with a stroke of 160 mm. The 25 mm bore provides a theoretical force of 294 N, suitable for precise actuations in compact automation cells and fixture applications.
The barrel is stainless steel (austenitic) and the piston rod is stainless steel (martensitic), delivering corrosion resistance and strength. Buffer cushioning reduces impact at end-of-stroke, while low-friction seals and a double-crimped end-cap design enhance longevity and low maintenance in demanding environments.
The cylinder includes a standard magnetic piston, enabling straightforward position sensing with sensors and control systems. Port sizing (Rc1/8) and the Roundline compatibility support easy integration with existing automation hardware and control logic in BMI and OEM configurations.
