SPEEDAIRE 22UX59 Air Motor 0.42 hp 30 cfm 1/4 in NPT
A cast-iron air motor delivers 0.42 hp and 30 cfm at 6,000 RPM with a 1/4 in NPT inlet
- Delivers 0.42 hp output for pneumatic tools
- 30 cfm maximum flow rate powers demanding applications
- 5 in-lb torque handles heavy-duty tasks
- Cast iron housing resists wear in tough environments
- 1/4 in NPT inlet simplifies air line connections
Air Motor 0.42 hp 30 cfm
The SPEEDAIRE 22UX59 is a rotary air motor rated at 0.42 hp with a maximum flow rate of 30 cfm. It delivers up to 13.5 in-lb of torque at 6,000 RPM no-load speed. The unit is built with a cast-iron housing and a Grade 40Cr shaft for industrial use.
Inlet 1/4 in NPT 80 psi max
Verify that your compressed-air system can supply clean, dry air at up to 80 psi through a 1/4 in NPT connection. Confirm the rotation direction is clockwise to match the motor’s fixed CW output. Ensure the 1/2 in diameter by 1 1/8 in long shaft with keyway suits your driven equipment.
Foot-mount 9.92 lb with muffler
The foot-mount base with hub allows direct bolting to a machine frame or bracket. The included muffler reduces exhaust noise in the workspace. At 9.92 lb the motor adds minimal mass to the assembly while freeing the build from electric-motor wiring and starter gear.

Questions about this item
What comes with the 22UX59 air motor and what must I supply?
The unit includes a muffler and has a 1/2 in shaft with a 1 1/8 in length. You must provide the compressed-air supply line and fittings for the 1/4 in NPT inlet, plus any mounting hardware for the foot-mount base.
How do I decide between the 0.42 hp and 30 cfm ratings when selecting this motor?
The 0.42 hp rating shows the mechanical power available at the shaft at 6,000 RPM, while 30 cfm is the air volume the motor consumes at that speed. Choose based on whether your application is limited by available compressor flow or by required output torque of 13.5 in-lb.
What does the 30 cfm figure mean once the motor is installed in my system?
At 6,000 RPM the motor will draw 30 cfm of compressed air at up to 80 psi. Your compressor and piping must sustain that flow continuously, otherwise speed and the 0.42 hp output will drop.
