Miniature Shock Absorbers
MC25

Shock absorbers in miniature format

Self-Compensating
Energy capacity 20 in-lbs/Cycle
Stroke 0.26 in

Ideal for compact, efficient designs: The miniature size of the product family MC5 to MC75 delivers very short overall lengths and low return forces.

The outer body of each shock, produced from one solid piece, is filled with temperature stable oil, offers a continuous outer body thread including a supplied lock nut and also has an integrated positive stop. These maintenance-free hydraulic machine elements from ACE are ready for immediate installation. A wide range of energy absorption and effective weight are further benefits in these compact units. Self-compensating shock absorbers react to changing energy conditions, without adjustment.

These self-compensating miniature shock absorbers are perfectly suited to use in applications such as rotary actuators, automation, light industrial manufacturing, material handling and packaging equipment, medical, electronics and robotics.

Safety information

External materials in the surrounding area can attack the seal components and lead to a shorter service life. Please contact ACE for appropriate solution suggestions. Do not paint the shock absorbers due to heat emission.

On request

Increased corrosion protection. Special finishes. Models without rod end button also available on request.

Application Examples

Miniature Shock Absorbers - MC5 to MC75
Pneumatic linear modules in miniature slide systems ensure high speeds with constant repeat accuracy. In this design, pneumatic end-of-travel damping was deliberately omitted and shock absorbers from ACE were used. This is because the compact MC5...
