Sleek Rod Tubular Linear Actuators

Description Sleek Rod Tubular Actuators boast a long life span, easy installation, and high-quality 12V DC-powered design, made to last. Our Sleek Rod Actuator line was produced for applications that require a clean-looking, modern appearance rather than hiding your system. The minimalistic presentation of these units and angular lines make this actuator line-up worthy as a showpiece itself. CAD models of this actuator can be found under 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 this actuator with switches, remotes, speed controllers, and Arduino.  The unit comes in two force variations: 40 lbs. and 150 lbs. Both dynamic force variants are quiet and smooth in operation. For those who want a good-looking, high-quality linear actuator to fulfill their project needs, this is the solution for you. All variants of the Sleek Road Actuator line feature built-in factory limit switches, internal dynamic O-rings for water protection, which provides an IP Rating of 54; as well as clevis mounting points at both ends for versatility. MB2 Mounting Brackets are used with these models.
