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

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.

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.

Use to lift a trolling motor

worked as needed

Im very satisfied with this I put to up and down my snow plow in my Husqvarnayth 22v46 and works perfec

Works well just wish it had more pulling firce

The actuator was installed and is working ok for now, but the brackets didn’t fit. The hole that attaches it to the actuator had to be drilled larger to line up with the actuator and this adds slope to the installation. I am worried that if quality control couldn’t insure accuracy on this simple issue how well is the rest of actuator built. I would not purchase this brand again, I just ordered three more from a different manufacturer.

it good but move so slow

This item came quickly and was just what we needed.

It was smaller than expected.
