Parker MC600 Male Button Shock Absorber 1 in Stroke

Product Description

The PARKER MC600 is a male button-style shock absorber designed to decelerate and cushion moving loads in industrial automation and motion control applications. With a 0.31-inch stainless steel rod diameter, a 1-inch stroke length, and a 0.87-inch outside diameter body, this unit handles repetitive impact cycles found in actuator end-stop and conveyor positioning systems. The 1-12 thread size allows straightforward threaded-body mounting. The steel body carries a black oxide finish for corrosion resistance in light-duty industrial environments. Licensed HVAC, automation, or maintenance technicians working with pneumatic or hydraulic motion systems will find this a direct-fit component for standard cushioning applications.

The MC600 is suited for light industrial machinery, pneumatic cylinder end-of-stroke cushioning, and automated assembly equipment where controlled deceleration of small moving masses is required. The operating temperature range of 32 degrees F to 150 degrees F makes it appropriate for standard indoor factory environments. The 5.58-inch overall length fits typical inline mounting configurations. This absorber ships as a single unit and is intended for professional installation in production machinery, pick-and-place systems, and similar industrial automation setups.

Key Features

• Male button absorber type for direct end-stop cushioning in linear motion systems
• Stainless steel rod at 0.31 inches diameter provides corrosion resistance at the contact surface
• 1-inch stroke length accommodates standard pneumatic actuator deceleration demands
• Steel body with black oxide finish resists light corrosion in indoor industrial environments
• 1-12 threaded body enables secure, adjustable inline mounting
• Rated for operation from 32 degrees F to 150 degrees F

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation shock absorber for light industrial linear motion and pneumatic actuator systems requiring a male button configuration with 1-12 thread mounting.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified maintenance technicians or automation specialists familiar with pneumatic and mechanical motion systems. Depressurize and de-energize the system fully before removing or installing the shock absorber. Ensure the thread engagement meets the equipment manufacturer minimum depth specification before applying load. Do not exceed the rated stroke or operating temperature range during service.
