FAQ
Q1: What is the FUJI LATEX FA-SB / PMB / PB / KB Series?
A: The FUJI LATEX FA-SB / PMB / PB / KB Series is a compact fixed hydraulic shock absorber lineup for short-stroke impact absorption in compact equipment, precision mechanisms, compact slides, and cylinder ends.
Q2: What equipment is the FA-SB / PMB / PB / KB Series suitable for?
A: It is suitable for compact automation equipment, precision equipment, compact slides, cylinder ends, inspection equipment, transfer mechanisms, and compact industrial machinery end stops.
Q3: What is the difference between FA-SB / PMB / PB / KB and FA-1212C?
A: FA-SB / PMB / PB / KB focuses on general compact short-stroke fixed cushioning, while FA-1212C uses a Bellofram Seal Type structure for soft small-energy absorption.
Q4: Is FA-SB / PMB / PB / KB fixed or adjustable?
A: FA-SB / PMB / PB / KB is a fixed hydraulic shock absorber lineup with no adjustment knob, suitable for compact machines with stable load, speed, and stopping conditions.
Q5: What models are available in the FA-SB / PMB / PB / KB Series?
A: Main models include FA-0805SB1, FA-0805SB2, FA-1005PMB1, FA-1005PMB2, FA-1008PB1, FA-1008PB2, FA-1210KB1, and FA-1210KB2.
Q6: What is the maximum absorption energy?
A: Depending on the model, maximum absorption energy ranges from 0.39 to 2.45 J, making the series suitable for compact equipment and short-stroke end-stop cushioning.
Q7: How should FA-0805SB, FA-1005PMB, FA-1008PB, and FA-1210KB be selected?
A: Start with thread size and stroke, then confirm absorption energy and equivalent mass. FA-0805SB is M8 with a 5 mm stroke; FA-1005PMB is M10 with a 5 mm stroke; FA-1008PB is M10 with an 8 mm stroke; FA-1210KB is M12 with a 10 mm stroke.
Q8: Are cap and capless versions available?
A: Yes. The order suffix -S means without cap, and -C means with cap. Final selection should match the contact method and available installation space.
Q9: What should be checked when using FA-SB / PMB / PB / KB?
A: Confirm mounting strength, external stopper design, impact speed, cycle rate, equivalent mass, and end-stop structure to avoid loads beyond the intended range.
Q10: How do I select the right FA-SB / PMB / PB / KB model?
A: Check maximum absorption energy, equivalent mass, impact speed, cycles per minute, stroke, thread size, and available end-stop space, then download the catalog or contact GATO Corporation for selection support.
