Parker MC75-3 Male Button Shock Absorber 0.4 in Stroke

Product Description

The PARKER MC75-3 is a male button-style shock absorber designed to decelerate and cushion moving loads in pneumatic and mechanical motion control applications. It features a stainless steel rod and a steel body finished in black oxide, providing corrosion resistance in demanding industrial environments. Key dimensional specifications include a 0.13-inch rod diameter, 0.33-inch outside diameter, 0.4-inch stroke length, and a 2.75-inch overall length. The 1/2-20 thread allows direct threaded installation into compatible fixtures or end-stop positions. Weighing just 0.09 pounds, this compact unit suits space-constrained automation setups. It is installed by maintenance technicians and automation engineers in light-duty motion control systems.

The MC75-3 is suited for use in light-duty pneumatic actuator end-stop applications, automation machinery, and material handling equipment. The male button contact style makes it appropriate for installations where the moving load makes direct face contact with the absorber tip. Operating temperature range spans 32 degrees F to 150 degrees F, making it appropriate for standard indoor industrial environments. Sold and packaged as a single unit.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation shock absorber for light-duty pneumatic and mechanical motion control systems requiring a 1/2-20 threaded male button absorber with a 0.4-inch stroke.

Installation Notes

Installation of this shock absorber is typically performed by automation technicians or mechanical maintenance personnel. De-energize and lock out all pneumatic and electrical energy sources before servicing any actuator or end-stop assembly. Ensure the mating thread and mounting bore are clean and free of debris before threading in the absorber. Do not exceed the rated stroke or operating temperature range in service.
