The RT/57263/M/160Roundline cylinder uses a 63 mm bore and 160 mm stroke to deliver space-saving benefits that enable higher density automation cells and faster cycle times. This compact footprint reduces enclosure size and allows more efficient cabinet layouts, translating to lower installation and integration costs in automotive, packaging, and general manufacturing lines. The stainless steel barrel and magnetic piston provide robust durability in demanding environments, while buffer cushioning minimizes end-of-stroke shock, reducing wear on guide rails and seals and extending service intervals. Low-friction, long-life seals reduce friction losses, improving overall cycle efficiency and delivering tangible uptime gains. Multiple mounting options and a 1/4 inch port enable straightforward installation and rapid retrofits, while Pneufit C fittings simplify tube routing and leak-free connections. The unit is designed to integrate seamlessly with sensors for smart automation and supports ISO/VDMA compatibility for broader interchangeability. Industry-grade efficiency, corrosion resistance, and modular fittings address common objections about lifecycle costs and maintenance burden while delivering reliable performance across high-cycle applications.

FAQs
RT/57263/M/160 supports a broad mounting ecosystem including Piston Rod Swivel, Clevis, Trunnion, Foot, and Universal Piston Rod Mounting options. This range aligns with the 63 mm bore and 160 mm stroke to provide flexible installation on automated cells, quick-change tooling setups, and retrofits without special adapters. It also pairs with dedicated mounts such as QM/8050/38 and QM/57063/25 for secure, vibration-resistant positioning.
Yes. The cylinder uses Rc1/4 port sizing and is compatible with Pneufit C push-in fittings. Available fittings like C01250828, C0TA00828, and C01470828 enable quick connection and reliable leak-free operation. Tubing options include PA2-0008025C 25 m and PA2-0008100 100 m in 8 mm/6 mm, making it easy to route air lines in compact machinery without custom tubing.
Key specs include a 63 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, 1–10 bar operating pressure range, and a theoretical force of 1870 N. The cylinder operates in -10 to 80 °C and 14 to 176 °F, with buffer cushioning to reduce end-of-stroke impact. Stainless steel barrel and piston rod materials improve wear resistance in continuous cycles typical of pick-and-place or machine-tending applications.
Yes. The unit features a standard magnetic piston enabling straightforward inductive or reed-switch sensing. For added reliability, a dedicated M/50/LSU/5V reed switch is available with a 5 m cable, and QM/33/063/22 switch mounting brackets are supported. This setup supports easy position sensing and predictive maintenance within automation networks.
The Roundline RT/57263/M/160 combines low-friction, long-life seals with buffer cushioning to extend service intervals and reduce downtime. Stainless steel components resist corrosion in challenging environments, while space savings lower enclosure and wiring costs. By enabling dense layouts and easier sensor integration, the cylinder delivers lower lifecycle costs and higher machine throughput in high-cycle lines.
