Bimba M-178-DNR Industrial Pneumatic Cylinder

Bimba M-178-DNR is an Original Line pneumatic cylinder with a 1-1/2 in bore and an 8 in stroke, designed for compact, long-stroke linear actuation driven by compressed air. It operates as a double-acting cylinder with an air-return system, enabling extend and retraction movements from both ends. The rod is a non-rotating hexagon type, and the unit mounts via a front nose—features that support stable, precise travel in tight spaces and straightforward installation. A magnetic piston supports simple position sensing, while the design specifies no rod wiper, no cushioning, and no bumper, aligning with standard, maintenance-friendly configurations. The assembly is cataloged as part of Bimba’s Original Line and weighs approximately 0.49 lb, with the model commonly referenced as 178-DNR (a closely related designation to M-178-DNR in some listings).
