## Description

Progressive Automations 12V Electric Linear Actuator - 8 Inch Stroke, 400 lbs Force, IP66 Water Resistance - High Load Linear Actuator for Automation, Manufacturing, Automotive, PA-04-8-100: desertcart.com: Industrial & Scientific

Review: Works exactly as described...use on my snow plow on my SxS - I uses this on my side by side to lift the snow blade. The down pressure that the actuator creates permits me to scrape by blacktop driveway. I previosly had a winch but the snow blade floated across the ice bumps. This actuator is relatively fast and I wouldn't be without one. Ditch the winch ! This probably wouldn't work good for soemoen with a gravel driveway as you would push off all your gravel/
Review: Good Quality - Works great so far. Sturdy construction. Make to cycle once before attaching the brackets to find the exact closed or open distance.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can I Use Your Actuators to Replace The One That I Already Have?**
A: Our actuators can be seamless replacements for most applications, however, should verify the necessary specifications for compatibility such as voltage rating, force rating, speed, ingress protection requirements, and stroke length.

**Q: Are All of Your Control Boxes Compatible With All Of Your Linear Actuators?**
A: No. However, we have a large variety of control boxes to choose from for each actuator. Alternatively, you may also use rocker switches as a form of motion control.

**Q: Can I Use My Own Control Box?**
A: Yes, however, you need to ensure your control box can provide sufficient current draw and compatible voltage. Otherwise, you risk damaging your actuator(s).

**Q: Can I Use My Own Power Supply as a Source For My Actuators?**
A: Yes. However, it is important to have sufficient voltage and current to be applied to your actuator.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Check it out before you install it
*by V***O on April 11, 2021*

The only problem I had with this from the 1st day was, when the actuator went all the way out it still tried to keep going even at the end of its stroke. it was not making the microswitch took in cap off jammed a screw down into the plastic that the microswitch is on and that pushed it slightly down the tube so that the actuator for the microswitch was now hitting the switch and stopping it in the right position
