Brand replacement research

MISUMI-listed shock absorber alternative assessment

MISUMI lists products from several manufacturers as well as its own ranges. Send the complete order code and manufacturer name so the original specification is not confused with the sales-channel listing.

How EKD candidates are shortlisted

Published energy per cycle, hourly duty, stroke, velocity and force are checked first. Mounting thread, total length, stop geometry and environmental requirements are then treated as separate confirmation items.

What to send for a final check

Send the full model code, nameplate or drawing, moving mass, impact velocity, drive force, cycles per hour, installation position and temperature. A model-family similarity alone is not a replacement approval.

Continue the assessment

A published comparison is a shortlist. EKD confirms the remaining application and installation conditions before ordering.
