- Stroke length and thrust rating
- Fail-safe action specification
03
Review factors
Condition, documents, and value context
Condition
Assess the condition of the stem connections and internal seals for any signs of wear, corrosion, or fluid leakage. The integrity of the housing and the functionality of the fail-safe mechanisms are also critical considerations when evaluating surplus linear actuators.
Documentation
Providing original specification sheets, calibration records, and maintenance logs will help verify the actuator's performance characteristics and compatibility.
Evaluation context
General evaluation considerations typically include the actuator's thrust capacity, stroke length, overall physical condition, and current market demand for specific manufacturer models.

Freight and site facts
Plan around the real load and access conditions
Safe transportation of heavy linear actuators requires secure palletizing and appropriate lifting equipment, with specific logistics depending on your facility's layout and load size.
Equipment-source context to document
- Facility maintenance stores and project surplus
- Shutdown, upgrade, or decommissioning inventory
- Contractor, distributor, and warehouse-held surplus
Loading details to share
- Equipment dimensions and weight
- Pallet or skid condition
- Forklift, crane, or dock access
- Gate, appointment, and site restrictions

Start with the nameplate
Send the facts you have. Leave unknown fields honest.
Clear photographs and a basic inventory list are useful. Do not repair, energize, pressurize, or move equipment solely for this form.
