SMC 6 mm Bellow Nitrile Rubber (NBR) Vacuum Pad ZPT06BN-A5

This vacuum pad is a bellows-style suction component designed for automated material handling. It connects via a male fitting to pneumatic tubing and is engineered for vertical vacuum entry, making it suitable for pick-and-place operations where a compliant contact surface is required. The flexible contact geometry and elastomer construction allow it to conform to varied part profiles while interfacing with standard 7mm outside-diameter tubing.

• Bellows geometry provides flexible surface conformity
• Nitrile rubber composition resists oils and film contamination
• Male connection enables direct attachment to tubing
• Vertical vacuum entry supports compact actuator layouts
• RoHS compliance aligns with restricted-substance requirements

• Used for robotic pick-and-place of small components
• Suitable for handling mildly oily surfaces in production
• Ideal for vertical-grip vacuum end-of-arm tooling
• Can be used with 7mm OD tubing in conveyor systems
• Used with automated feeders in assembly lines

The pad is manufactured from NBR which offers abrasion resistance and maintains elasticity under repeated compression cycles, reducing surface degradation in continuous operation.

A male fitting permits straightforward insertion into compatible female connectors or tubing adaptors, minimising required clearance for connections in compact layouts.

The design accepts vacuum from the vertical direction, so the vacuum plumbing and actuator must be arranged to provide suction along that axis.

It is intended for use with tubing that has a 7mm outside diameter to ensure a secure interface and effective vacuum transfer.
