Parker MC225H2 Male Button Shock Absorber 3/4-16

Product Description

The PARKER MC225H2 is a male button shock absorber designed to decelerate and cushion moving loads in industrial automation, pneumatic, and motion control applications. It features a 0.25 inch rod diameter, a 0.5 inch stroke length, and a 3/4-16 threaded body with a 0.66 inch outside diameter. The overall length is 3.81 inches. The rod is constructed from stainless steel, while the body is steel with a black oxide finish for corrosion resistance. This type of shock absorber is typically installed by maintenance technicians or automation specialists working on linear actuator systems, end-stop damping fixtures, and machine guarding assemblies.

The MC225H2 is suited for light-duty deceleration tasks in factory automation, pneumatic cylinder end-of-stroke cushioning, and industrial equipment where controlled stopping of moving components is required. Its compact dimensions make it a practical fit for space-constrained mounting locations. The male button style allows direct mounting into threaded receiver blocks or machine frames. Operating temperature range runs from 32 degrees F to 150 degrees F, making it appropriate for standard indoor industrial environments.

Key Features

• Male button absorber type for direct threaded installation into receiver blocks
• Stainless steel rod for durability and resistance to surface corrosion
• Steel body with black oxide finish for added corrosion protection
• 3/4-16 thread size for secure, positive engagement in mounting fixtures
• 0.5 inch stroke provides controlled deceleration travel in compact assemblies
• Rated for operating temperatures from 32 degrees F to 150 degrees F

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation shock absorber for light-duty industrial automation and pneumatic motion control systems requiring a male button style unit with 3/4-16 threading and a 0.25 inch rod diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified maintenance technician or automation specialist. De-energize all pneumatic and electrical systems and relieve any stored pressure before servicing or replacing shock absorbers. Ensure the threaded receiver is clean and free of debris before installing to avoid cross-threading or misalignment. Follow applicable machine safety and lockout/tagout procedures per OSHA standards during service.
