With a 0.75-inch rod diameter and a 2.91-inch stroke length, this unit absorbs kinetic energy to protect machinery components from impact damage. The body and rod are both constructed from steel with a black oxide finish for corrosion resistance in demanding shop environments. Licensed maintenance technicians and machine builders install this type of shock absorber in automated assembly lines, conveyor stops, actuator end-of-travel applications, and material handling equipment. The 2-1\/2-12 thread allows direct mounting into compatible receiver blocks or end caps.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis shock absorber is suited for use in industrial machinery requiring reliable end-of-travel deceleration. It is applicable in both light manufacturing and heavier automated process lines where controlled stopping of pneumatic or mechanical actuators is required. The male button end style accommodates contact with moving carriage stops or strike plates. Operating temperature range spans 10 degrees F to 150 degrees F, making it appropriate for standard indoor industrial environments. The overall length of 8.85 inches and compressed length of 1.91 inches should be factored into installation clearance calculations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMale button absorber type for direct contact with strike plates or carriage stops\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.75-inch rod diameter with 2.91-inch stroke for substantial energy absorption travel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel rod and body construction with black oxide finish for durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-1\/2-12 thread size for straightforward threaded mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated for operation from 10 degrees F to 150 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompressed length of 1.91 inches for compact installed footprint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install shock absorber for industrial automation equipment requiring a male button style unit with a 2-1\/2-12 threaded mount and 0.75-inch rod diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified industrial maintenance technician or machine builder. Isolate and de-energize all pneumatic, hydraulic, and electrical energy sources before servicing or replacing shock absorbers on any machinery, following applicable OSHA lockout\/tagout procedures. Verify thread engagement depth and mounting clearance using the 8.85-inch overall length and 1.91-inch compressed length specifications before finalizing installation. Do not exceed the rated operating temperature range, and inspect the unit periodically for signs of fluid leakage or physical damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbsorber Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Male Button\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRod Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShock Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStroke Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.91 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/2-12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8.85 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompressed Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.91 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRod Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Operating Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Operating Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: PARKER\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: MC6450-2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542016426290,"sku":"MC6450-2","price":1323.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/719d81f575bc02fb908cfda412212cce_f009c8a3-5768-459e-ac40-514e9ff0ff26.jpg?v=1785889697","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-mc6450-2-male-button-shock-absorber-2-91-in-stroke","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
