Linear Actuator- Need emergency bypass or mechanical release-

Im looking for a 8-10in linear actuator with a 6-8 in throw. Specifics can be figured out later for that. Im replacing a hydro mechanical unit with hopefully and all electric one.
In a equipment failure scenario, I need to be able to bypass this physically mounted linear actuator. It would be mounted with bolts on either end.
Bolt end Could be a pin on a electric retract. Ideas?

Hi @Jwsteele1981 and welcome to our forum.

Do you have any specs or photos of that hydro mechanical unit you want to replace? I am trying to imaging what you actually need.

I didn’t see any electric actuators with some kind of physical bypass. I guess this should be solved with some kind of mechanical mechanism mounted on bolt ends of this actuator.
