SMC Corporation NCDA1B325-0800 Tie Rod Cylinder

The SMC NCDA1B325-0800 Tie Rod Cylinder is an NCA1-series, aluminum-bodied pneumatic actuator designed for precise, repeatable linear motion, offering a 3.25 in bore and an 8 in stroke to suit compact automation cells. This double-acting, single-rod cylinder uses a 1/2 in NPTF air inlet and employs carbon steel tie rods with an anodized aluminum body to resist wear and maintain alignment under load, while the body finish provides additional corrosion resistance. A magnetic piston supports easy position sensing in typical control circuits, and a built-in air cushion helps dampen end-of-stroke impact; mounting is via tapped holes on the front, enabling straightforward integration into fixtures or stacks. Standard specifications—bore 3.25 in; stroke 8 in; inlet 1/2 in; cushion type air cushion; cylinder action double acting; number of rods single rod—make this NCDA1B325-0800 suitable for clamping, lifting, or push-pull tasks in packaging lines, assembly stations, or material-handling conveyors.
