About Air Cylinders

Select a cylinder, prolong its life by reducing wear, and trigger automated processes with sensors.

Round Body Air Cylinders

Double-Acting Round Body Air Cylinders

Push and pull light duty loads. These air cylinders use compressed air to both extend and retract, so they operate at nearly full force in either direction.

Single-Acting Round Body Air Cylinders

More basic and cost effective than double-acting cylinders, these single-acting cylinders exert force in one direction and have a spring to return the rod to its original position.

Impact-Resistant Round Body Air Cylinders

Built to withstand hard knocks, these cylinders have a thick barrel wall for more durability than standard air cylinders.

Washdown Round Body Air Cylinders

Able to resist corrosive solutions and chemical environments, these cylinders withstand washdown conditions.

Double-Ended Round Body Air Cylinders

Unlike other air cylinders that push and pull one object, these double-ended cylinders push one object while pulling another.

Rotary Clamping Air Cylinders

Clamp items in place to complete a step in your manufacturing process.

Nonrotating Round Body Air Cylinders

Keep tools from twisting while moving them back and forth.

Multiple-Stroke Round Body Air Cylinders

Move loads between three positions instead of two.

Tie Rod Air Cylinders

Rods along the barrel of these cylinders secure the end caps and shield the barrel from impact.

NFPA Tie Rod Air Cylinders

Made to fit the most common mounting footprint, these cylinders have an NFPA (National Fluid Power Association) industry-standard footprint, ensuring easy interchangeability.

Washdown NFPA Tie Rod Air Cylinders

Made with an NFPA industry standard footprint and a stainless steel body, these cylinders are easily interchanged with the most common mounting footprint and withstand chemicals, corrosive solutions, and washdowns.

Nonrotating NFPA Tie Rod Air Cylinders

Cylinders have two parallel piston rods that prevent twisting as they extend and retract.

Enclosed-Body Load Responsive
Cushion Air Cylinders

These cylinders have self-adjusting cushions that automatically compensate for changes in load and speed.

Enclosed-Body NFPA Air Cylinders

An extruded-aluminum body means these cylinders have no open spaces for debris to collect.

Locking Tie Rod Air Cylinders

Halt actuation at a moment’s notice—these air cylinders have an end lock that acts as an emergency stop. If there's a sudden loss of air pressure, the end lock engages to safely hold the load.

Flexible-Mount Air Cylinders

Threaded through-holes in each corner allow you to mount these cylinders directly to equipment or mount with attachments.

Thin-Profile Flexible-Mount Nonrotating Air Cylinders

Clean Room Flexible-Mount Air Cylinders

Mount these cylinders directly to equipment in environments where contamination is a concern, such as electronics manufacturing.

Vacuum Lifting Air Cylinders

Combine the lifting power of a vacuum with the actuation of an air cylinder to automate processes such as pick and place. With a hollow rod that’s threaded to connect to a vacuum pad, these cylinders let you move items with suction.

Rodless Air Slides

With no external moving parts, these air slides provide a long stroke, but have a static footprint—only the carriage on top moves.

High-Load Rodless Air Slides

Move heavy loads back and forth—these air slides have over twice the capacity as standard rodless ones. They are often used for high-volume diverting and sorting.
