Parker MA225M Male Button Shock Absorber M20 X 1.5

Product Description

The PARKER MA225M is a male button shock absorber designed to control and cushion the deceleration of moving loads in pneumatic and mechanical motion systems. With a 0.75-inch stroke and a compact 0.66-inch outside diameter, this unit fits into tight mounting envelopes where precision energy absorption is required. The rod is stainless steel for corrosion resistance, and the steel body carries a black oxide finish. The M20 x 1.5 threaded body allows for straightforward inline or panel mounting. At 0.19 inches rod diameter and 4.67 inches overall length, this absorber is suited to light-duty industrial applications where repeatable, consistent deceleration is critical. Licensed trades and industrial maintenance professionals install this component as part of automation and motion control assemblies.

The MA225M is intended for use in pneumatic actuator systems, linear slide assemblies, and automated machinery where end-of-travel cushioning is required. It operates across a temperature range of 32 degrees F to 150 degrees F, making it appropriate for standard indoor industrial environments. The male button style allows it to be used as a fixed-position bumper target or as part of a paired shock absorber mounting arrangement. Installation is common in manufacturing, assembly automation, and material handling equipment maintained by industrial mechanics and automation technicians.

Key Features

• Male button absorber type for fixed or adjustable end-of-travel cushioning
• Stainless steel rod provides corrosion resistance in light-exposure environments
• Black oxide finish on steel body for surface protection
• M20 x 1.5 thread for direct panel or bracket mounting
• 0.75-inch stroke delivers controlled deceleration in compact installations
• Operating temperature range of 32 degrees F to 150 degrees F suits standard indoor industrial use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation shock absorber for pneumatic and mechanical motion control systems requiring an M20 x 1.5 threaded male button style unit with a 0.75-inch stroke and 0.66-inch outside diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by industrial maintenance technicians or automation professionals. De-energize and lock out all pneumatic and electrical energy sources before servicing any motion control assembly. Thread engagement and mounting torque should follow the equipment manufacturer specifications for M20 fasteners. Verify that the stroke length and load rating of the replacement unit match the original design requirements before commissioning.
