Notes- The A16C series consists of several sub‑models that share the same outer diameter (16 mm) and nominal body length (23.7 mm), while applied voltage and electrical/mechanical performance vary by sub‑model as shown in the table above.
- Some models offer high‑speed variants (tens of thousands r/m) and options for different drive/vibration types in related families.
