Airpot Snubber | Pneumatic Shock Absorbers

The Airpot Snubber achieves this by forcing ambient air through an adjustable orifice at a controlled rate, dissipating kinetic energy, reducing impact, noise and wear.

Airpot’s snubbers are specifically designed to provide unparalleled energy dissipation accuracy by eliminating friction from  their working elements. The materials used have built-in lubricity, high strength-to-weight ratio, excellent stability under temperature/humidity extremes, close coefficients of thermal expansion, and non-deteriorating performance due to age or non-use. The basic parts are a graphitized carbon piston, precision ground to millionths of an inch TIR inside an annealed, borosilicate glass cylinder with a precision fire-polished bore. Airpot snubbers are available in 4 bore sizes ranging from 0.627” to 1.75” and strokes lengths of 1.1” to 2.3”

Features:

• Not connected to the damped mass they are working with
• Used in accurate end of stroke and shock absorption applications
• Primary function is energy dissipation
• One way only,(damping in compression)
• Low force return spring for self resetting
