FAQs

Mounting this 12 mm diameter, 25 mm stroke cylinder generally benefits from aligned end-mittings and a stable mounting surface to minimize misalignment. Use the M5 port with standard air fittings and select compatible end caps or brackets from the Roundline range. Ensure the workspace permits adequate clearance for stroke travel and any attached sensors or fixtures.
The 12 mm Roundline format reduces overall envelope, enabling denser layouts and higher system throughput. The 25 mm stroke provides sufficient reach for short-stroke actuations, while the low-friction seals and buffer cushioning help maintain consistent cycle times and reduce shock loads on downstream components.
Yes, with low-friction, long-life seals designed for durability in pneumatic systems. Regular inspection of the end caps, seals, and piston rod for wear helps prevent leaks. Because the device uses a magnetic piston, sensor alignment and feedback wiring should be checked periodically. Clean air supply and proper filtration also extend service life.
Certifications depend on configuration; standard practice in this category supports CE conformity and IP-rated variants per application. Verify the specific unit’s documentation or contact the supplier for the exact certification scope tied to your chosen configuration, especially if the cylinder will operate in hazardous or moisture-prone environments.
Expect space savings that free up cabinet and machine floor space, reduced maintenance due to durable seals and corrosion-resistant stainless steel components, and improved uptime from reliable, magnetic feedback-enabled control. These factors typically translate into lower installation costs, faster cycle times, and a shorter payback period on upgraded pneumatic actuators.
