Norgren RT/57232/MC/250 Roundline Cylinder - Magnetic
Part Number: RT/57232/MC/250
Quick Summary
RT/57232/MC/250 Roundline cylinder delivers precise linear actuation for compact packaging automation. Engineers face tight-spot installations where conventional ISO cylinders waste valuable space. This roundline, double-acting cylinder offers 32 mm bore, 250 mm stroke, and a standard magnetic piston for easy sensing and control integration. With CE-compliant design and rugged IP-rated construction, it supports reliable operation in harsh environments and varied temperatures. The combination of high-strength stainless steel components and buffer cushioning reduces wear and maintenance, while the compact form factor enables scalable deployments across multiple lines. For customers seeking consistent performance and lifecycle cost reduction, this unit integrates smoothly with existing compressed air systems and control architectures.

FAQs
The RT/57232/MC/250 uses Rc1/8 porting with roundline cylindrical geometry designed for straightforward installation. The standard design supports common mounting styles found in ISO/VDMA-compatible systems, enabling quick alignment with existing brackets and end caps. This promotes faster commissioning and reliable, repeatable actuation in tight automation cells.
RT/57232/MC/250 features a standard magnetic piston for sensing and control integration. For SIL-rated safety applications, ensure compatibility with your safety PLCs and add appropriate safety interlocks or protective devices per your risk assessment. The cylinder itself supports reliable, controlled motion, but SIL conformity depends on the complete safety system implementation.
Operating temperature ranges from -10 to 80 °C (14 to 176 °F), and operating pressure spans from 1 to 10 bar (15 to 145 psi). These ranges enable use across typical industrial environments and provide flexibility for varying process cooling or heating conditions and compressed air supply quality.
This model features a 32 mm bore and a 250 mm stroke, delivering a compact footprint with substantial stroke reach. The longer stroke supports extended reach in tight spaces, enabling more versatile placement of actuators in small-scale automation tasks without increasing overall machine length.
The barrel is made from austenitic stainless steel and the piston rod from martensitic stainless steel. This combination offers excellent corrosion resistance, high strength, and wear durability, delivering longer service life in challenging environments and reducing maintenance frequency in demanding applications such as food, beverage, or chemical processing lines.
