Self-Compensating Energy capacity 16,550 in-lbs/Cycle to 50,000 in-lbs/Cycle Stroke 1.91 in to 5.91 in
The latest damper technology: The combination of the latest sealing technology, annealed guide bearing and integrated positive stop make these self-compensating shock absorbers from ACE'S MAGNUM range so successful. After all, users benefit from the longer service life of the products, even in the most difficult environments. A continuous outer thread and extensive accessories make their contribution to the success story of the MC33 to MC64.
High energy absorption in a compact design and a wide damping range lead to huge advantages in practice. Alongside generally more compact designs, these small yet very powerful absorbers enable full use of the machine's performance. Self-compensating shock absorbers react to changing energy conditions, without adjustment.
These self-compensating industrial shock absorbers are used in all areas of industrial automation and machine engineering, especially in automation and for gantries.

Technical Notes
Note
A noise reduction of 3 dB to 7 dB is possible when using the special impact button. For emergency use only applications and for continous use (with additional cooling) it is sometimes possible to exceed the published max. capacity ratings. In this case, please consult ACE.
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
Special oils, nickel-plated, increased corrosion protection, mounting inside air cylinders or other special options are available on request.
