The larger than normal heat treated pinions provide low tooth contact pressures and permit hollow shaft configurations with bore sizes capable of transmitting full operating torques, including shock loadings. In order to negate the chances of galling or scoring of the cylinder barrels, the Series M units are fitted with wear ring bushings that provide full support and eliminate the possibility of contact between cylinder and piston. The use of large diameter, tapered roller bearings on the pinion permit the actuator to absorb considerable thrust, radial and overhung loads. 

For ease of maintenance, all pressure seals on Series M can be inspected or replaced without removing the actuator from the customer’s shaft. To ensure shipment of only the highest quality product, each actuator is fully tested and has an individual test sheet completed before final painting and shipment.
