Norgren A0177C1PS-6X12 Air Cylinder 6 in Bore 12 in Stroke

Product Description

The NORGREN A0177C1PS-6X12 is a single-acting rodless air cylinder built for industrial pneumatic applications requiring precise linear motion without an external piston rod. The aluminum body keeps weight manageable at 32.5 pounds while maintaining structural integrity under continuous duty. With a 6-inch bore, 12-inch stroke, and a maximum working pressure of 250 psi, this cylinder is suited for medium-to-heavy force applications in automated machinery, assembly equipment, and material handling systems. The 3/4 NPTF port provides a reliable, leak-resistant threaded connection to standard pneumatic plumbing. Licensed pneumatic system technicians and industrial maintenance mechanics are the typical installers.

This cylinder is designed for use in industrial automation environments where a traditional rod-style cylinder would create clearance or overhang problems. The rodless design allows the load to travel along the full stroke length without adding rod extension beyond the cylinder body. The square style and side tapped mounting configuration make it straightforward to bolt into fixed machine frames and structural channels. The 6.5-inch overall width fits into standard cylinder mounting envelopes common in automated production lines and packaging equipment.

Key Features

• Single-acting rodless design eliminates external rod overhang, reducing required clearance envelope
• 6-inch bore delivers high force output suitable for medium-to-heavy load applications
• 12-inch stroke length provides substantial travel range within a compact cylinder body
• 250 psi maximum working pressure compatible with standard industrial compressed air systems
• 3/4 NPTF port ensures a pressure-tight, tapered thread connection to pneumatic supply lines
• Aluminum body construction balances strength with reduced overall cylinder weight
• Side tapped mounting allows direct integration into machine frames without external brackets

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct installation rodless air cylinder for industrial pneumatic systems requiring a 6-inch bore, 12-inch stroke, single-acting configuration with side tapped mounting.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified pneumatic systems technician or industrial maintenance mechanic. Depressurize and lock out the pneumatic supply line before removing an existing cylinder or fitting this unit into a new assembly. Verify that supply line pressure does not exceed 250 psi and that the 3/4 NPTF port connections are sealed with an appropriate thread sealant rated for pneumatic service. Follow applicable OSHA machine guarding and lockout/tagout procedures during installation and commissioning.
