Norgren RT/57240/MF/80 Pneumatic Cylinder - Magnetic
Part Number: RT/57240/MF/80
Quick Summary
Norgren RT/57240/MF/80 is a Roundline double-acting pneumatic cylinder optimized for compact actuation in automated assembly and packaging lines. It delivers space savings up to 20% versus a basic ISO/VDMA cylinder, enabling tighter line layouts without sacrificing stroke. While reduced footprint is a key benefit, reliability matters; the unit features low-friction, long-life seals, a high-strength double crimped end cap design, and a standard magnetic piston for full control-system versatility. CE compliance considerations and IP-rated variants are common in the Roundline family, so verify the exact certifications on the datasheet when selecting for your application. With stainless steel barrel and piston rod, this cylinder also supports harsh environments, delivering predictable lifecycle costs and reduced downtime for manufacturers.

FAQs
Yes. The Roundline family is designed to integrate with common ISO/VDMA mounting patterns, and this model uses a standard Rc1/8 port and 40 mm bore with an 80 mm stroke to fit typical automation layouts. Always verify end-cap style and mounting dimensions against the datasheet during installation.
The cylinder supports 1 to 10 bar (15 to 145 psi) operating pressure and features an Rc1/8 port size, enabling flexible installation with a wide range of valves and manifolds commonly used in pneumatic systems.
The double-acting design, buffer cushioning, and magnetic piston provide smooth, controlled motion and repeatable positioning, which are advantageous for moderate to high-speed pick-and-place tasks. For extreme high-speed cycles, confirm cycle-time requirements and consider system damping and controller compatibility.
Roundline cylinders commonly meet CE requirements and offer IP-rated variants. Exact certifications for RT/57240/MF/80 should be confirmed via the official datasheet, as listed in downloads, to ensure compliance for your regulatory environment and installation site.
The stainless steel barrel and martensitic piston rod deliver enhanced corrosion resistance and durability, reducing wear and maintenance needs. Combined with long-life seals and a robust end-cap, this translates to lower downtime and more predictable lifecycle costs in demanding environments.
