Technical & Application
Material
Graphite carbon piston.
Annealed borosilicate glass cylinder.
Precision fire-polished bore.
Stainless steel piston rod (AISI 304).
Shock resistant rubber case.
Technical Notes
Piston area = 2.405 in² (1551.61mm²)
Pressure range = full vacuum - 100 psi (0.69 MPa)
Force factor:
Piston area x pressure = output force.
Max force = 1070.61N (at 0.69 MPa)
Minimum pressure differential required for actuation = 0.05 psi (345 Pa)
Friction coefficient = 0.2
Force without side load typically 0.5% - 1.5% of load.
Operating temperature range: -55°c to 150°c.
If operating at temperatures about +70°c, please advise when placing order.
Mounting data:
Mounting hole:
Round: 0.625" min (16mm).
Suggested mounting bracket thickness = 0.250" max (6.35mm).
Mounting nut torque:
Head = 40-60 in-lb (4.5-6.8 Nm).
Rod end = 5-15 in-lb (0.56-1.70 Nm).
*Full stroke is obtained with customer held mounting tolerance of ±0.015" (0.038mm).

Useful Information
What is a Dashpot?
- A dashpot is a motion damping device that reduces velocity, vibration, and oscillation in dynamic mechanisms. This is accomplished by using a piston to force ambient air through an orifice at a controlled rate to dissipate kinetic energy.
Dashpots/Shock absorbers:
We identify configurations in which the piston rod is attached to the load being damped as dashpots. We identify configurations in which the piston rod is struck by, but not attached to the load, as shock absorbers. The benefits of a Dashpot or shock absorber: - It prevents damage and violent or inaccurate response caused by shock and vibration in sensitive equipment
- It reduces impact noise and wear
- It provides simple, low cost, adjustable speed control without external power
- It provides non-electrical timing capability.
Why Choose one of our dashpots/shock absorbers over other damping devices?
