DC HOUSE 12 Inch 12 High Speed 14mm/s Linear Actuator Motor 1000N DC12V with Mounting Brackets

In the first photo you see that you cannot mount the LINEAR actuator flush. So if you wanted to use it for a sliding mechanism, you cannot. If you wanted to mount it in the interior of a door to use it for opening the door, you cannot. Second photo and thirdyou see the stud on the motor side that is to attach to the mounting bracket is so far off MFG tolerance that you can’t insert the pin into the bracket holes. Returned.

good product

Generallly this works OK, and meets its specs. However, the machining of the mounting pin holes is shockingly bad. Ordinary good manufacturing practices produce products with better tolerances than a hobbyist machine shop can. This is much worse than hobbyist machining level. The pin hole (at the motor end) is not perpendicular to the rod, which can be checked by mounting the actuator in one position (eg. motor facing east), and then remounting it after rotating it 180 degrees. On mine, the difference in rod end position was about 1.5 inches, meaning that the hole was drilled a couple degrees from perpendicular. Some hand filing with a rat tail file trued mine up enough to prevent binding, but of course, the hole is no longer round or straight. Suggested improvements: stainless steel anchor brackets and pins to make it more suitable for use outdoors. And, of course, standard machining.

Bad quality, screws are loose, missing parts, holes not drilled in the pins, missing cotter pins. JUNK. Already failing after a day of use. stay away

Very quiet Smooth and runs fast

Bought this for a router lift. Works perfect. Extends fairly quick, about as fast as I can manage anyway. Lifts the 35 pound load with just 10 watts of power (.8 amp). So far the quality seems great, time will tell. Unit seems well sealed so I dont expect any problems with dust and no water as it is an inside application. Very pleased with the speed. A++

I have had one in the past, needed another one for new machine. These work very well to move the snow chute on a big snow blower. Simple to wire up, strong enough for the job. Disappointed in the companys hardware kit to mount to the machine, sent cotter pins, brackets, but no connecting pins to hold the bracket and actuator together. I had to find my own.

The casting at the attachment point is very thin pot metal and gave out at approximately 100 pounds of load. The Actuator literally pulled itself apart.

Purchased the 12” set of these and they arrived non-functional. Went through the return process with no issues. Then 10 days after the return window closed for the second set, after working just fine, one just completely stopped working. So now I have to but a whole new set just to replace one side. Find a better product, spend a few more dollars from the start so that these less expensive ones don’t cost you more in the long run like me.

Worked as expected. Will use as a door opener/closer on a Chicken Coup.
