IMI Norgren RT/57225/MF/25 Roundline Cylinder - Magnetic
Part Number: RT/57225/MF/25
Quick Summary
RT/57225/MF/25 is a compact Roundline cylinder designed for precise double-acting actuation in automated assembly lines. Engineers often struggle with limited mounting space and maintenance overhead when using conventional ISO cylinders in tight spaces. Certification details for this exact part are not listed in the data sheet; however, Norgren Roundline products are typically designed to support CE compliance and robust operation in regulated environments, with IP-rated variants and SIL considerations available across configurations. The combination of space efficiency, stainless steel components, and a magnetic piston enables easy sensor integration and lower lifecycle costs, delivering reliable performance in modern manufacturing settings.

Feature: Space-efficient Roundline design reduces overall footprint by approximately 20% compared with the basic ISO/VDMA cylinder, enabling more actuators per line and simpler machine layouts. Business Impact: Higher utilization of valuable plant space leads to increased production capacity and reduced footprint, particularly in compact automation cells. Application: Ideal for pick-and-place, gantry, and packaging booths where space is at a premium and throughput matters. Feature: Low-friction, long-life seals provide consistent cylinder performance and reduced maintenance intervals. Business Impact: Lower lubrication and fewer seal replacements translate into lower total cost of ownership and higher mean time between failures. Application: High-cycle applications in food, beverage, and packaging lines where uptime is critical. Feature: Buffer cushioning delivers smooth starts and gentle deceleration, minimizing shock loads and wear on end caps. Business Impact: Protects downstream mechanisms and improves repeatability for precision positioning. Application: End-of-stroke control in automated assembly and material handling. Feature: Magnetic piston enables straightforward sensing and system integration without additional parts. Business Impact: Simplified automation wiring, faster setup, and reliable position feedback for PLC or servo control. Application: Sensor-ready installations in closed-loop control systems. Feature: Stainless steel barrel and martensitic stainless steel piston rod provide corrosion resistance and durability in challenging environments. Business Impact: Longer actuator life, reduced downtime, and suitability for washdown or harsh shop-floor conditions. Application: Food-and-beverage, pharmaceuticals, and outdoor installations where exposure to moisture is possible. Feature: Rc1/8 port size aligns with common pneumatic components, enabling quick installation and broad compatibility. Business Impact: Flexible, low-cost integration with standard valves, regulators, and manifolds. Application: Retrofit projects and new line builds seeking off-the-shelf compatibility.

FAQs
The RT/57225/MF/25 uses a standard Rc1/8 port, enabling straightforward connection to common pneumatic manifolds, valves, and regulators. Ensure compatible mounting brackets and end caps are selected to preserve the magnetic piston sensing and buffer cushioning performance. Confirm seal compatibility with your lubricant, cycle rate, and ambient conditions to optimize life expectancy.
This model supports an operating pressure range of 1 to 10 bar (15 to 145 psi) and operates effectively from -10 to 80 °C (14 to 176 °F). Verify your system’s cooling and lubrication strategy to maintain optimal performance, especially at higher duty cycles or harsher environments.
Yes, the RT/57225/MF/25 features a magnetic piston, which enables easy integration with non-contact position sensors and control systems. This facilitates reliable feedback for PLCs or servos without adding external magnets or switches, improving fault detection and repeatability in automated cycles.
The Roundline family is designed around standardized dimensions and mounting concepts common in ISO/VDMA applications. While this specific model emphasizes a compact form factor and 25 mm bore, it can be integrated with typical mounting plates, end caps, and brackets used in ISO/VDMA configurations, provided the overall envelope and stroke align with your equipment.
Benefits include low-friction, long-life seals and buffer cushioning that reduce wear, plus a corrosion-resistant stainless steel barrel and piston rod for extended service in challenging environments. These features lower maintenance intervals, improve uptime, and deliver predictable performance in high-cycle applications.
