New bimba te series linear thruster te-041-CEB1M,
Please see the included drawing for dimensions.
The TE series Linear Thruster has bearings made of fiber-embedded plastic and large-diameter stainless steel shafts.
This model features high load capabilities and is ideal for corrosive environments.
Clear anodized aluminum housing and tooling plate
Plastic composite guide shaft bearings
High-strength aluminum alloy porting ends
303 stainless steel piston rods
Sintered bronze rod guide bushing
Buna N seals with a temperature range of -20 F (-25 C) to 200 F (95 C) are standard in all BIMBA air cylinders.
If cylinders are operated at temperatures below 0 F for extended time periods, special modifications may be required.
Air cylinders are pre-lubricated and sealed at the factory for extensive maintenance-free life. Cylinder life can be lengthened
by providing additional lubricant with an air line mist lubricator or direct introduction of oil to the cylinder every 500 hours of operation.
Recommended oils are medium to heavy inhibited hydraulic and general purpose oil.
The stroke can be adjusted with external urethane bumpers. These are on one end (-EB1 option).
They are 1/4" thick and fit over the guide shafts at the ends of the housing (see picture).
Shaft collars are supplied with each set of bumpers to eliminate movement possible with high loads and velocities.
Thus, with -EB1 option, there will be a total of two collars.
Guide shafts are lengthened so stroke on extension isn't affected; however, bumpers reduce the retraction stroke.
Higher loads and velocities may dictate the use of external means of deceleration such as shock absorbers
