New series of Schrader pneumatic couplings
Parker Pneumatic has further extended its industry standard Schrader Range of quick acting pneumatic couplers with the introduction of the Euro Series.
Maximum operating pressure is 10 bar.
The compact slide housing - which allows use in very confined spaces - features four built-in bushings which guide two parallel, and case hardened support rods.
The slide body integrates a low profile cylinder which contains a wear strip, piston magnet, and two pressure energised, wear compensating piston seals.
Side ports are standard; rear porting for efficiency in very confined spaces is a standard option.
Also built into the body are piston bumpers which reduce noise, dissipate energy and contribute to longer operating life.
For high speed applications, or where high loads are being moved, optional hydraulic dampers can be specified.
Parker Pneumatic's P5T Short Stroke Slides are available in nine sizes - 16, 20, 25, 32, 40, 50, 63, 80 and 100 mm and feature BSPP ports as standard.
Options available include Hall Effect and reed switches, rear porting, dowel pin holes, flow controls, corrosion resistant shafting and fluorocarbon seals. Request a free brochure from Parker Hannifin ...
