Technical Details for the MC9


The MC9 miniature shock absorbers are compact, self-compensating units designed for efficient energy absorption in space-constrained applications. With an energy capacity of 1 Nm/Cycle and a stroke of 5 mm, they offer reliable performance in impact velocity ranges of 0.15 m/s to 4 m/s. Built from corrosion-resistant materials with integrated positive stops and filled with temperature-stable oil, these maintenance-free shock absorbers are suitable for a wide range of industries, including mechanical engineering, robotics, and medical technology. They are easy to install, versatile in mounting, and customisable for specific requirements, ensuring long-lasting and precise operation in applications such as pneumatic cylinders, handling modules, and locking systems.
