SMC ZP2-T6020WNK20-06 | ZP2 Series Oval Vacuum Pad 60x20mm Non-Rotating Vertical Inlet With Buffer NBR Rubber 20mm Stroke One-Touch Fitting

The SMC ZP2-T6020WNK20-06 is a mid-size oval vacuum pad from the ZP2 series, engineered with a 60x20mm pad footprint that provides significantly greater contact area than the 40x10mm variants while maintaining the elongated profile needed for handling rectangular and strip-form workpieces. The vertical vacuum inlet with non-rotating 20mm buffer stroke delivers reliable, orientation-stable gripping for automated transfer of sheet materials, packaging blanks, labels, thin panels, and other flat workpieces with limited adsorption surface area.

What applications benefit from a 60x20mm oval pad? The larger oval footprint generates substantially higher holding force compared to smaller oval configurations, making this size ideal for medium-weight flat components in packaging lines, printed circuit board handling where component clearance zones restrict circular pad placement, and sheet material transfer in converting and printing industries. The 60x20mm dimension provides approximately three times the contact area of the 40x10mm variant, proportionally increasing vacuum holding capacity.

Constructed from NBR (nitrile butadiene rubber) as indicated by the "N" material suffix, this pad delivers dependable sealing and wear resistance in standard industrial temperature environments from 0°C to +70°C. The 20mm buffer stroke ("K20") provides moderate compliance for applications with slight workpiece height variation while maintaining responsive pick-and-release cycling. The non-rotating "W" design ensures the oval pad maintains its orientation throughout transport, preventing workpiece rotation that could cause misalignment at the place station.

This vacuum pad connects via a ø6mm one-touch fitting ("06") for quick pneumatic line installation and is RoHS compliant. It integrates with all SMC vacuum generators, pressure switches, and control valves for complete vacuum circuit configuration in automated material handling systems.
