The Light-Duty (LD) series of Glideforce linear actuators by Concentric International (formerly Iowa Export-Import) are 12V DC gearmotors that use a lead screw to move a shaft back and forth along its length. The shaft will hold its position even when unpowered and subjected to static loads up to 250 kgf [550 lbs or 2500 N]. Two limit switches safely stop the motor at either end of its range, while integrated diodes allow it to reverse direction after reaching a limit point if the supplied voltage is reversed. The actuators have an all-aluminum frame and extension tube, and the entire case is sealed to protect against dust and water (rated IP65).

This 12 V light-duty (LD) linear actuator with a 5:1 gear reduction can lift loads up to 15 kgf [34 lbs or 150 N] and can withstand static loads up to 250 kgf [550 lbs or 2500 N]. It has a maximum speed of 43.9 mm/s [1.73″/s] at no load and 36.5 mm/s [1.44″/s] at the maximum load. Limit switches at each end make the actuator easy to control over its full range of motion. The shaft holds its position when unpowered.
