Norgren RT/57232/MF/320 Roundline Cylinder - 32x320
Part Number: RT/57232/MF/320
Quick Summary
Norgren RT/57232/MF/320 Roundline cylinder provides compact, precise actuation for automated assembly and material handling. In space-constrained lines, its 32 mm bore and 320 mm stroke help you achieve reach without expanding the footprint. CE-compliant options and IP-rated housings are common in the Roundline family, while SIL performance is verified at system level—confirm per project. The rugged design includes low-friction seals, a magnetic piston for full control system versatility, and a double crimped end cap that supports long service life in tough environments. This cylinder’s stainless steel barrel and piston rod enhance corrosion resistance, enabling reliable operation in humid or dusty plants, while buffer cushioning protects delicate components and extends cycle life.

FAQs
The RT/57232/MF/320 Roundline cylinder uses standard mounting and porting specifications common to 32 mm bore cylinders, including Rc1/8 ports and compatible end caps. It supports straightforward retrofits to existing frames and sensor layouts, reducing installation time. Verify mounting pattern and sensor alignment against your existing fixture to ensure seamless integration.
With a theoretical force of 482 N, this cylinder handles typical pick-and-place and clamping operations for small to medium parts. The 320 mm stroke provides extended reach for reach-and-pick tasks while preserving a compact footprint. Buffer cushioning protects delicate components and improves cycle reliability in high-speed lines.
Operating between -10 and 80 °C and 1 to 10 bar, the RT/57232/MF/320 covers a broad range of industrial environments. Its stainless steel barrel and piston rod add corrosion resistance in humid or harsh settings. For safety-critical duties, confirm system-level certifications and ensure that your control logic accommodates the cycling demands.
Plan for sensor placement around the magnetic piston to leverage easy feedback, and ensure Rc1/8 line connections are properly secured. The double crimped end caps and stainless components minimize maintenance needs, while low-friction seals reduce wear. Regular diagnostics can capitalize on the magnetic piston for position sensing without extra hardware.
The 20% footprint reduction, combined with long-life seals and corrosion-resistant components, translates to smaller machine envelopes, lower maintenance costs, and improved line throughput. Sensor-ready design reduces wiring complexity, while robust construction supports higher uptime in demanding environments, delivering lower total cost of ownership over the lifecycle.
