HMR6 series · spec 280 · Helical, through-shaft straddle-mount family
HMR6-280 helical rotary actuator
2,830 Nm driving torque at 210 bar, 220° / 180° rotation, in straddle mount. The HMR6-280 is 2nd of 5 sizes in the HMR6 through-shaft straddle range, built to order for two-sided drive points on one axis, where the shaft passes right through the housing and both ends drive a load.
It sits between HMR6-180 at 1,800 Nm and HMR6-300 at 3,050 Nm.
Specifications — HMR6-280

HMR6 is rated at 210 bar continuous; the straddle mount means both bearing faces are loaded, so bracket alignment is checked before quoting. 220° is the standard rotation on HMR6; 180° is a special angle that has to be confirmed by engineering.
What the code means
Every HMR6 unit is specified the same way. If your tag carries a different suffix, the base size is still HMR6-280.

Cross reference
Models customers compare with HMR6-280
These are the models that sit in the same torque class and come up in the same enquiries. They are comparable references, not validated substitutions — we confirm the mounting pattern, shaft and port details against your unit before quoting.
| Make | Model | Reference page |
|---|---|---|
| Helac | T20-25 | See the T20-25 page |
| Sungji | SRS-115 | See the SRS-115 page |
Comparable performance based on rated torque class for engineering comparison. The mounting interface must be confirmed by our engineering team before quotation.
What we check before quoting
On the unit
- Mounting pattern and bolt spacing
- Shaft type, spline or keyway, and length
- Port size, thread form and valve arrangement
On the machine
- Available envelope and tie-rod clearance
- Working pressure and flow at the actuator
- Rotation stops and any mechanical limits
HMR6-280 questions
What can I use in place of an HMR6-280?
We build the HMR6-280 itself to order, and where an HMR6-280 is no longer available we quote the closest HM HMR6 build and confirm the fit against your unit. We do not publish a one-to-one substitution table, because mounting pattern, shaft, port thread and valve arrangement have to match your machine, not just the torque class.
Is HMR6-280 a direct replacement for Helac T20-25?
No — we do not claim a verified drop-in for any other make. Enquiries for this torque class arrive tagged as Helac T20-25, Sungji SRS-115; we treat those as comparable references and compare rated torque, mounting interface, shaft and ports before quoting the HMR6-280 build that suits your machine.
How is the HMR6-280 order code put together?
The pattern is HMR6-{spec}-{angle}-{valve}. A worked example is HMR6-280-220-CB. Rotation, mount, output and valve are chosen per machine, so the code on your drawing is what we build to.
