Parker MC4575M4 Male Button Shock Absorber M45 X 1.5

Product Description

The PARKER MC4575M4 is a male button-style shock absorber designed to decelerate moving loads and dissipate kinetic energy in industrial automation and motion control applications. With a 0.5 inch rod diameter, 1.75 inch outside diameter, and a 2.91 inch stroke length, this unit provides controlled cushioning across a meaningful range of travel. The M45 x 1.5 threaded body allows for direct mounting into compatible fixtures and machine frames. Overall length is 9.69 inches. At 3.16 pounds, it is a robust component intended for integration into automated machinery, fixtures, and actuator end-stop positions.

This shock absorber is suited for light-to-medium industrial automation environments where consistent deceleration of moving masses is required. Typical applications include end-of-stroke cushioning on linear slides, pneumatic cylinder stops, conveyor positioning systems, and robotic tooling fixtures. It is installed by mechanical, automation, and maintenance technicians working on production machinery, assembly equipment, and material handling systems.

Key Features

• Male button absorber type for direct contact with moving load faces
• 0.5 inch rod diameter with 2.91 inch stroke for controlled energy absorption across extended travel
• 1.75 inch outside diameter body fits standard industrial mounting bores
• M45 x 1.5 threaded body for secure, adjustable positioning in machine frames
• 9.69 inch overall length accommodates deeper mounting configurations
• 3.16 pound construction reflects a solid, durable build for repeated cycle use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit shock absorber for industrial automation equipment requiring an M45 x 1.5 threaded male button configuration with a 1.75 inch outside diameter body.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by mechanical or automation technicians. De-energize all pneumatic and electrical circuits and relieve system pressure before servicing or replacing shock absorbers. Thread the unit into the mounting fixture by hand first, then tighten to align with the load contact point without over-torquing the body. Confirm stroke clearance and load alignment before returning the system to service.
