Heavy Industrial Shock Absorbers
CA3X5-1
Deceleration of heavy loads
Self-Compensating
Energy capacity 125,000 in-lbs/cycle
Stroke 5.00 inch
ACE uses our proprietary custom calculation program to design each shock absorber for the specific customer application. Customization helps reduce the risk of crashes and incorrect product sizing. The CA models can absorb up to 1,119,620 in-lbs (126,500 Nm) of energy and can be used in the area of effective weights between 1,543 lbs and 718,707 lbs. (700 kg and 326,000 kg). The combination of being extremely solid, absorbing high levels of energy and having a large damping range makes them invaluable. Self-compensating shock absorbers react to changing energy conditions, without adjustment.

In this case, please consult ACE. Safety informationExternal materials in the surrounding area can attack the seal components and lead to a shorter service life. Please contact ACE for appropriate solution suggestions. Do not paint the shock absorbers due to heat emission. On requestSpecial oils, nickel-plated, increased corrosion protection or other special options are available on request. |
