      Description

      Motorize your idea's with the FIRGELLI Classic Rod linear actuator. Lift, slide, push, or rotate another object as the piston extends and retracts to exert the force needed for your automation project. 

      Versatility 

      These classic linear actuators come in nine strsoke lengths: 1-inch, 2-inch, 3-inch, 4-inch, 6-inch, 9-inch, 12-inch, 18-inch, and 24-inch, letting you choose the right size for any build. They also have maximum load capacities of 35 lbs, 150 lbs, and 200 lbs for each stroke length, so neither weight nor distance will be too great for your device. All models are compatible with 12V input sources or 24V. 

      Durability

      Manufactured with longevity in mind, our classic linear actuators are built to last. All structural components are made from aerospace-grade aluminum for lightweight yet rugged performance, and the IP54 rating lets you trust that your unit will be dust and splash-resistant enough to withstand the elements. For added safety, internal limit switches deactivate the unit once the arm has reached maximum extension/retraction, protecting the device and your build. 

      3D CAD models of this actuator can be found under the 3D model tab or Resources/3D Files. For further information review the specifications and technical drawings down below or visit our Tutorials page for instructions on how to use these actuators with switches, remotes, speed controllers, and Arduino or other Micro-controllers.
