Norgren RT/57232/MF/125 Roundline Cylinder - Magnetic Piston
Part Number: RT/57232/MF/125
Quick Summary
Norgren RT/57232/MF/125 is a roundline pneumatic cylinder designed for compact, double-acting actuation in automation and packaging lines. When space is at a premium, this model reduces overall length by about 20% versus a basic ISO/VDMA cylinder, easing installation and routing. The unit combines low-friction, long-life seals, a robust double-crimp end cap, and a standard magnetic piston to enable versatile control and switch integration. Certification options such as CE and IP-rated variants are commonly available depending on configuration, with SIL capabilities varying by version. Built with a stainless steel barrel and a corrosion-resistant piston rod, it delivers reliable performance in demanding environments while supporting cost-effective maintenance and sustainable lifecycle choices. This enables engineers and procurement teams to achieve consistent uptime and predictable total cost of ownership.

FAQs
RT/57232/MF/125 follows Norgren Roundline mounting standards and is designed to fit common ISO/VDMA patterns used on similar 32 mm bore cylinders. For precise bolt hole spacing and accessory compatibility, refer to the datasheet and check the end-cap orientation options for your installation.
The cylinder has a theoretical force of 482 N. Actual force depends on supply pressure within 1 to 10 bar, plus dynamic friction and any cushioning. Plan cycles around this rating and validate under your specific load profile and cycle frequency.
Yes, the unit’s buffer cushioning and low-friction seals support smooth, rapid actuation with reduced impact. The magnetic piston also enables reliable sensing for high-speed control loops, helping to maintain consistent cycle times in packaging lines.
Certification availability depends on configuration. CE and IP-rated variants are commonly offered, while SIL options depend on the version. When ordering, specify the required regulatory approvals to guarantee the correct variant is supplied and documented.
Follow standard pneumatic maintenance: inspect seals for wear, verify the integrity of the magnetic piston and end caps, and monitor port tightness. The stainless steel barrel/rod construction supports wash-down compatibility, and periodic lubrication per your system’s lubricant policy will help sustain performance over longer cycles.
