Zimmer Shock Absorber Accessories

Stop Sleeve

The Powerstop cannot be used as a hard stop, by means of the piston striking the bottom of housing. The stop sleeve prevents this hard connect by providing a final stopping point. This can be adjusted to suit each application.

Plastic and Steel Head

By using this accessory the surface hit area will be enlarged (minimization of surface load). In applications where noise may be a concern plastic heads would be recommended.

Cooler Nut

In high cycle application heat may be an issue; the operational temperature should not exceed 70°C. With use of the cooler nut, the energy absorption, per hour, can be increased to almost double its rated value.

Note: the maximum energy absorption per stroke may not be exceeded.

Bolt Pre-Supporting Air Curtain

Two issues can be resolved with this one unit. First, if the impact angle is greater than 2°, a bolt pre-supporting must be used. This allows the impact angle to be increased up to 30°. Second, if the applications are in a harsh environment, the use of the lock air adapter can be used. Low consumption of air and longer life are guaranteed.
