Built for compact pneumatic drive applications that need higher output speed with reversible rotation, the Cleco 22M5270-50 is a 22 Series reversible rotary vane air motor rated at 0.7 HP with a 2,400 RPM free speed. A rotary vane air motor uses sliding vanes inside the motor chamber to turn compressed air into shaft rotation, making it useful for fixtures, small machinery drives, packaging equipment, and auxiliary motion systems where air power is preferred over an electric motor.This model provides 4 ft-lbs of stall torque, which is the turning force available when the motor stops under load, and uses a 7.1:1 gear ratio to keep the output speed controlled while still delivering usable torque. Compared with lower-speed models in the 22 Series, the 22M5270-50 is better suited to applications that prioritize faster rotation over maximum stall torque. The 1/2″ keyed spindle supports secure coupling to compatible hubs, sprockets, pulleys, or machine components, while the side exhaust configuration helps route exhaust air away from the installation area.Type: Air Motor | Series: 22 Series | Motor Type: Rotary Vane | Control: Reversible | Mounting: Flange and Base Mounting | Power: 0.7 HP / 0.52 kW | RPM at Max HP: 1,200 RPM | Free Speed: 2,400 RPM | Stall Torque: 4 ft-lbs / 5.42 Nm | Gear Ratio: 7.1:1 | Spindle Type: 1/2″ Keyed Spindle | Air Consumption: 29 SCFM / 0.82 m3/min | Air Inlet: 1/4″ NPT, side and rear | Exhaust: Side | Rated Air Pressure: 90 PSI / 620 kPa | Overall Length: 6.16″ | Weight: 2.38 lbs / 1.08 kgFeatures:0.7 HP rotary vane motor provides compact air-powered rotation for machine-mounted and fixture-driven applications.Reversible control allows clockwise and counter-clockwise operation when the motor is connected to the proper pneumatic circuit.2,400 RPM free speed supports faster output rotation than the higher-torque, lower-speed models in the same 22 Series family.4 ft-lbs stall torque allows the motor to stop under load without the same burnout risk associated with many electric motors.7.1:1 gear ratio provides speed reduction and torque multiplication for controlled mechanical drive use.1/2″ keyed spindle helps transmit torque securely through compatible couplings, pulleys, sprockets, and hubs.Flange and base mounting configuration supports secure installation on brackets, plates, fixtures, and OEM machinery.Side and rear 1/4″ NPT air inlet options give installers flexibility when routing compressed air lines into tight layouts.Made in USA: Applications:Packaging and production equipment powering small rotary functions, indexing devices, adjustment systems, and auxiliary machine drives.Fixture and tooling systems driving turntables, clamps, positioning devices, and custom shop-built pneumatic mechanisms.Conveyor and material handling support operating light-duty drive functions where reversible air-powered motion is required.Industrial maintenance and MRO replacing worn pneumatic motors or building compact drive assemblies for repair fixtures and test setups.OEM machinery integration adding reversible rotary power to equipment where compact size, air operation, and stall tolerance are useful selection factors.FAQs:Q: When should I choose the 22M5270-50 instead of a lower-speed 22 Series air motor?A: Choose the 22M5270-50 when the application needs higher rotational speed and does not require the higher stall torque of slower models such as the 22M5070-50 or 22M5071-50. Its 2,400 RPM free speed makes it better suited to faster auxiliary drive tasks.Q: What does 4 ft-lbs stall torque mean?A: Stall torque is the torque available when the motor is loaded until it stops. For this model, 4 ft-lbs indicates a speed-focused air motor with enough torque for light mechanical drive work, not a high-torque low-speed drive.Q: Can this Cleco air motor run in reverse?A: Yes. The 22M5270-50 is a reversible air motor, meaning it can rotate in either direction when installed with the correct pneumatic control setup.Q: What air supply does this motor require?A: The motor is rated for performance at 90 PSI and uses 29 SCFM of air. The air system should be sized to maintain that flow at the motor after accounting for hose length, fittings, filters, regulators, and other equipment connected to the same supply.Q: What does the 1/2″ keyed spindle connect to?A: The keyed spindle is used with compatible couplings, hubs, sprockets, pulleys, or other driven components. The keyway helps lock the mating part to the shaft so torque can be transferred more securely. .spec-accordion{width:100%;max-width:1200px;margin:1em auto;font-family:”Montserrat”,Arial,sans-serif;box-sizing:border-box} .spec-accordion *{box-sizing:border-box} .spec-accordion-toggle{width:100%;display:flex;justify-content:center;align-items:center;position:relative;background:#444;color:#fff;border:0;padding:14px 48px;font-family:”Bai Jamjuree”,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:16px;font-weight:700;text-transform:uppercase;cursor:pointer;text-align:center} .spec-accordion-toggle::after{content:”+”;font-size:22px;position:absolute;right:18px} .spec-accordion.open .spec-accordion-toggle::after{content:””} .spec-accordion-panel{display:none!important;width:100%;padding:16px 0 0} .spec-accordion.open .spec-accordion-panel{display:block!important} .spec-accordion-panel[hidden],.spec-accordion:not(.open) .spec-accordion-panel{display:none!important} .spec-table-wrapper{width:100%;max-width:1200px;margin:0 auto;overflow-x:visible!important;overflow-y:hidden;-webkit-overflow-scrolling:touch} .spec-table{width:100%!important;max-width:1200px;min-width:100%;margin:0 auto;border-collapse:collapse;table-layout:fixed;font-family:”Montserrat”,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:11px;color:#000} .spec-table th{background:#444;color:#fff;text-transform:uppercase;font-family:”Bai Jamjuree”,Arial,sans-serif;font-weight:700;font-size:10px;padding:7px 4px;border:1px solid #ddd;text-align:center;line-height:1.15;white-space:normal;word-break:normal} .spec-table td{padding:6px 4px;border:1px solid #eee;text-align:center;line-height:1.15;white-space:normal;word-break:normal} .spec-table .long-text{white-space:normal} .spec-table tbody tr:nth-child(even){background:#f7f7f7} .spec-table tbody tr:hover{background:#e5e5e5} .spec-table a{color:#0066cc;text-decoration:none;font-weight:600;background:transparent;padding:0;border-radius:0;box-shadow:none} .spec-table a:hover{text-decoration:underline} .group-row td{background:#444;color:#fff;font-family:”Bai Jamjuree”,Arial,sans-serif;font-weight:700;text-transform:uppercase;text-align:left} @media(max-width:640px){.spec-accordion,.spec-table-wrapper,.spec-table{width:100%;max-width:100%}.spec-accordion-toggle{font-size:14px;padding:13px 48px}} .spec-accordion.is-mobile-table .spec-table-wrapper{overflow-x:visible!important;overflow-y:visible} .spec-accordion.is-mobile-table .spec-table{width:100%;max-width:100%;min-width:0!important;border:0;table-layout:auto} .spec-accordion.is-mobile-table .spec-table thead{display:none!important} .spec-accordion.is-mobile-table .spec-table,.spec-accordion.is-mobile-table .spec-table tbody,.spec-accordion.is-mobile-table .spec-table tr,.spec-accordion.is-mobile-table .spec-table td{display:block;width:100%} .spec-accordion.is-mobile-table .spec-table tr{margin-bottom:14px;border:1px solid #ddd;background:#fff} .spec-accordion.is-mobile-table .spec-table tbody tr:nth-child(even),.spec-accordion.is-mobile-table .spec-table tbody tr:hover{background:#fff} .spec-accordion.is-mobile-table .spec-table th,.spec-accordion.is-mobile-table .spec-table td{white-space:normal!important} .spec-accordion.is-mobile-table .spec-table td{display:flex;justify-content:space-between;gap:14px;text-align:right;border:0;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:10px 12px;font-size:13px;word-break:break-word} .spec-accordion.is-mobile-table .spec-table td::before{content:attr(data-label);font-weight:700;text-transform:uppercase;color:#444;text-align:left;flex:0 0 46%} .spec-accordion.is-mobile-table .spec-table td>a{word-break:break-word;background:transparent} .spec-accordion.is-mobile-table .group-row td{text-align:center;background:#444;color:#fff} .spec-accordion.is-mobile-table .group-row td::before{content:none} Available Variations and SpecificationsSKUMountSpindle TypeRPM at Max HPFree SpeedTorque StallWeightGear RatioLengthHorsepowerAir ConsumptionControl(RPM)(RPM)(Ft-Lb) | Nm(Lb)kgin | mmHp | kW(SCFM)22M5070-50Flange and Base Mounting1/2 in Keyed Spindle16533028.4 | 38.483.061.3950.4-17.88 | 2000.729Reversible22M5070-60Flange and Base Mounting1/2-20 Threaded Spindle16533028.4 | 38.483.061.3950.4-17.88 | 2000.729Reversible22V5040-50Flange and Base Mounting1/2″ in Keyed Spindle2154305.8 | 7.864.01.8138.7-17.88 | 2000.929LH Rotation22M5071-50Flange and Base Mounting1/2″ in Keyed Spindle25050019.6 | 26.563.061.3934.8-17.88 | 2000.729Reversible22M5270-50Flange and Base Mounting1/2″ in Keyed Spindle120024004.0 | 5.422.381.087.1-16.16 | 1560.729Reversible22M5340-50Flange and Base Mounting1/2″ in Keyed Spindle160032005.8 | 7.864.01.817.1-16.19 | 1570.929Non-Reversible22M5440-50Flange and Base Mounting1/2″ in Keyed Spindle235047004.0 | 5.424.01.814.9-16.19 | 1570.929Non-Reversible (function(){ function initSpecAccordions(){ document.querySelectorAll(“.spec-accordion”).forEach(function(a){ if(a.dataset.specAccordionInit===”true”)return;
