A42 Rotary Actuator

The A42 is our biggest rotary actuator and it features a one-piece heat-treated alloy steel pinion shaft, two racks for zero backlash at end of stroke, and billions of flexible standard configurations

Overview

With over 60 times more torque capacity than our A032 Rotary Actuator, the A42 is our largest rotary actuator. Its tie rod construction provides for a virtually unlimited number of possible combinations of standard, readily available options that could be installed either on the top or bottom cylinders as needed. With oversized ball bearings and a one-piece, heat-treated alloy steel pinion shaft, this extremely rugged, versatile actuator is an excellent choice for demanding medium to large applications.
