Parker 2.50TEF4MAU14A08.00 Rodless Air Cylinder 2.5in 250psi

Product Description

The PARKER 2.50TEF4MAU14A08.00 is a double acting rodless air cylinder designed for linear motion applications in pneumatic systems. With a 2.5-inch bore and an 8-inch stroke, it delivers controlled bi-directional movement powered by compressed air. The cylinder body is constructed from aluminum, keeping weight manageable at 6.3 pounds while maintaining structural integrity under a maximum working pressure of 250 psi. The 3/8 NPTF port accepts standard fittings for straightforward plumbing into existing pneumatic circuits. A basic mount configuration provides flexibility for integration into a wide range of machine frames and fixtures. Licensed technicians and industrial maintenance professionals are the primary installers.

This cylinder suits industrial automation, material handling, and motion control applications where a traditional rod-style cylinder is not practical due to space constraints or load orientation. The rodless design keeps the overall footprint compact, with an overall length of 11.75 inches and an overall width of 3 inches. The 7/16-20 female rod thread interface and nitrile butadiene rubber seals make it compatible with standard pneumatic system hardware. It is appropriate for both light industrial machinery and dedicated production equipment operating on shop-air supplies.

Key Features

• Double acting design provides powered extension and retraction for positive control in both directions
• 2.5-inch bore with 8-inch stroke delivers consistent linear force output
• Aluminum body construction reduces overall assembly weight while withstanding up to 250 psi working pressure
• 3/8 NPTF port integrates directly with standard pneumatic fittings and manifolds
• Rodless configuration saves axial space compared to conventional rod cylinders
• Nitrile butadiene rubber seals provide reliable performance across typical industrial operating temperature ranges

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for pneumatic linear motion systems requiring a 2.5-inch bore, 8-inch stroke, double acting rodless cylinder with basic mount and 3/8 NPTF porting.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified pneumatic systems technician or industrial maintenance professional. De-pressurize and lock out the air supply before removing any existing cylinder or connecting fittings. Ensure all supply lines and fittings are rated for at least 250 psi and that port connections are sealed with appropriate thread sealant compatible with NPTF threads. Verify that the mounting surface and fasteners can support the load and reaction forces generated during operation before placing the system back in service.
