Parker MC225MH Male Button Shock Absorber M20 X 1.5

Product Description

The PARKER MC225MH is a male button shock absorber designed to control and dampen kinetic energy in industrial motion systems. With a 0.25-inch rod diameter, 0.66-inch outside diameter, and a 0.5-inch stroke length, this compact unit fits tight mounting envelopes where precise energy absorption is required. The overall length is 3.81 inches. The rod is stainless steel and the body is steel with a black oxide finish, providing corrosion resistance in demanding shop-floor and automation environments. Licensed mechanical and industrial maintenance technicians typically install this type of component in actuator end-stop and positioning applications.

This shock absorber suits linear motion assemblies where controlled deceleration at end-of-travel is critical. It is threaded M20 x 1.5 for direct installation into standard metric-threaded actuator bodies, fixtures, or mounting blocks. The male button configuration allows it to receive impact loads directly on the button face, making it a common choice for pneumatic cylinder cushioning, conveyor stop stations, and automated assembly machinery requiring repeatable, low-rebound stopping force.

Key Features

• Male button absorber type for direct face-contact impact loading
• Stainless steel rod construction for corrosion resistance
• Steel body with black oxide finish
• M20 x 1.5 metric thread for straightforward installation into standard metric mounts
• Compact 0.5-inch stroke in a 3.81-inch overall length package
• Operating temperature range: 32 degrees F to 150 degrees F

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for industrial linear motion and pneumatic actuator assemblies requiring an M20 x 1.5 threaded male button shock absorber with a 0.25-inch rod diameter and 0.5-inch stroke.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified industrial maintenance technicians or mechanical assembly professionals. De-energize and exhaust all pneumatic or hydraulic pressure from the system before removing or installing shock absorbers. Use appropriate metric wrenches and thread-locking compound as required by the equipment manufacturer. Verify thread engagement depth and torque per the equipment OEM specification before returning the system to service.
