Parker SC300-8 Male Button Shock Absorber 3/4-16

Product Description

The PARKER SC300-8 is a male button shock absorber designed to decelerate and cushion moving loads in linear motion applications. It uses an energy-absorbing mechanism to reduce impact force at the end of travel, protecting equipment and extending service life. The rod diameter measures 0.19 inches, the outside diameter is 0.66 inches, and the stroke length is 0.59 inches. Overall length is 4.62 inches. The 3/4-16 thread allows direct installation into compatible mounting points without additional hardware. This type of component is typically installed by mechanical technicians and automation technicians working on pneumatic or mechanical linear systems.

The SC300-8 is suited for light-duty linear motion applications including pneumatic cylinder end-of-stroke cushioning, automated machinery, and assembly line equipment. The male button style allows it to be threaded directly into a tapped bore or used with a lock nut for adjustable positioning. The compact outside diameter of 0.66 inches fits space-constrained installations. It is commonly found in industrial automation, material handling, and light manufacturing environments where controlled deceleration of moving components is required.

Key Features

• Male button absorber type for direct threaded installation
• 0.59 inches stroke length provides end-of-travel cushioning
• 0.19 inches rod diameter and 0.66 inches outside diameter for compact fitment
• 3/4-16 thread size for secure, standard mechanical mounting
• 4.62 inches overall length suits a range of linear motion assemblies
• Lightweight at 0.33 pounds for minimal added mass to the system

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation shock absorber for light-duty linear motion and pneumatic systems requiring a male button style unit with 3/4-16 thread.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a qualified mechanical or automation technician. Power down and de-energize all pneumatic or hydraulic circuits before removing or installing shock absorbers. Use the correct thread engagement depth and secure with a jam nut where required to prevent backing out under cyclic load. Do not exceed the rated stroke length during installation or operation.
