The new Pneumatic Series RLN Rod Lock features a AMLOK Power-Off Rod Lock.



Advanced Machine & Engineering Co., (AME) (Rockford, IL) announces the Fourth- Generation RLN Series Rod Locks. The new Pneumatic Series RLN Rod Lock has been developed as a solution to control problems inherent to pneumatics – over travel, drifting, bouncing and reverse traveling. The AMLOK Power-Off Rod Lock can be mounted to a NFPA cylinder, or as a stand alone unit and features:

  • No rod displacement on engagement.
  • Large clamping surface that reduces pressure-per-square-inch on the rod.
  • Fast response time.
  • Low backlash.
  • 4 bar (60 psi) release pressure.
  • Precision holding 0.002-0.003.
  • Consistent clamping force in both directions.
  • High cycle rates and accuracy.
  • Holds load during power/pressure loss.
  • Compact unit, easy integration.
  • Versatile sleeve nut/tie rod mounting to NFPA style pneumatic cylinders.
  • Many NFPA style-mounting attachments available for stand alone applications.
