IMI Norgren RT/57240/MC/125 Roundline Cylinder - Magnetic piston

The RT/57240/MC/125 Roundline cylinder delivers measurable business value through a series of focused features. Space efficiency is achieved with a 40 mm bore and a 125 mm stroke, saving up to 20% in length versus comparable ISO/VDMA cylinders, which reduces panel width and cabinet footprint while enabling higher actuator density on automation lines. The stainless steel barrel and martensitic piston rod provide corrosion resistance and durability in demanding environments, extending service life and lowering lifecycle costs. A standard magnetic piston enables straightforward sensing and integration with existing control systems, improving diagnostics and enabling safer, more predictable operation. Buffer cushioning minimizes impact loads at end positions, reducing wear on seals and frames and enabling higher cycle rates in packaging and pick-and-place tasks. The double crimped end cap design reinforces structural integrity for high-cycle applications and challenging temperature swings, boosting reliability in automotive, food& beverage, and general assembly lines. The RC1/8 port size aligns with common pneumatic manifolds, easing installation and reducing custom fittings. Operating pressure of 1–10 bar and a temperature range of -10 to 80 °C cover typical factory air systems and ambient variations, while the 754 N theoretical force supports mid-load actuation with consistent performance. This cylinder is part of the RT/57200/M Range within Norgren’s Roundline Series, designed for modular automation and easy sensor integration, helping maintenance teams streamline part numbering and stock management. In practice, engineers appreciate the compatibility with standard mounting patterns and quick sensor alignment, which shortens commissioning time and stabilizes production. Overall, the RT/57240/MC/125 delivers a reliable balance of compact footprint, robust materials, sensing-capable design, and predictable actuation for medium-load applications.
