Parker MA64100 Male Button Shock Absorber 3.91in Stroke

Product Description

The PARKER MA64100 is a male button shock absorber engineered for industrial motion control applications where controlled deceleration of moving loads is required. The unit features a 0.75-inch rod diameter and a 2.25-inch outside diameter, with a 3.91-inch stroke length that provides substantial energy absorption travel. Overall length measures 12.85 inches. The 2-1/2-12 threaded body allows for direct mounting into compatible fixtures or machine frames. At 11.9 pounds, this is a heavy-duty unit suited for higher-load applications. It is typically installed by maintenance technicians, automation engineers, or industrial mechanics working on pneumatic or mechanical motion systems.

This shock absorber is designed for use in industrial automation, assembly line equipment, material handling systems, and machine tool applications where end-of-travel cushioning is needed. The male button style allows contact with moving workpieces or actuator rods without the need for additional adapter hardware. It is suited for both horizontal and vertical mounting configurations depending on the system design and load requirements.
