•Thrust of up to 50 pounds (222 N) for single-stack and 75 pounds (337 N) for double-stack
•Speeds exceeding 3 inches (7.62 centimeters) per second for single-stack and 7 inches (17.8 centimeters) per second for double-stack
The Size 17 hybrid actuator is the first in the Max Series, with additional sizes planned for future release.
