SMC Corporation of America NRBC031-025 Shock Absorber

SMC NRBC031-025 Shock Absorber is a cap-type pneumatic damper in SMC’s NRB/NRBC family, designed to cushion end-of-stroke motion in compact linear systems. The base NRBC031-025 model is complemented by the NRBC031-025S variant, which denotes the cap-equipped version for straightforward installation in assemblies that require a defined stop. In SMC catalogs this shock absorber is listed alongside NCX2 slide units (for example NCX2N10) as NRB031-025/NRBC031-025 combinations, highlighting its role as an interchangeable end-of-travel damper for compatible sliding components. These dampers are used in pneumatic automation equipment and packaging lines to reduce impact and limit rebound, helping extend the life of moving parts. Availability from multiple distributors—Motion Industries, Grainger, MRO Supply, and others—confirms it as a standard catalog item within the SMC NRB/NRBC shock absorber lineup.
