Minimize the release of particles that can damage electronics or contaminate batches as you push and pull light loads. These air cylinders are designed with seals and caps that prevent particles from escaping. A rod seal wipes grease particles off the rod as it moves back and forth. The seal is polyurethane, which is slippery, so it wears more slowly than standard seals, releasing fewer particles. These cylinders also have tightly crimped end caps to stop air from leaking.

With no tie rods on the outside, these round-body cylinders fit in tight spaces. They have an ISO industry-standard footprint that fits common mounting patterns for easy interchangeability. As universal-mount cylinders, they have mounting threads on both ends, giving you more mounting options than nose-mount cylinders. You can also pivot mount them with the through-hole on the back. They’re double acting, meaning they push and pull loads with equal force.

The piston is magnetic, so you can use these cylinders with sensors (sold separately) to activate relays and controllers. When the piston moves past a sensor, the sensor activates. You can use multiple sensors—one for each action you want to trigger.

Instead of attaching your round body air cylinder directly to equipment, add a mount to best suit your application.

Push and pull light duty loads in areas constantly exposed to dust and powders as fine as flour. With lubricant retainers around their piston to block particles, these cylinders last up to four times longer in dusty environments than standard air cylinders. They’re often used in ceramics and paper manufacturing facilities. These air cylinders use compressed air to both extend and retract, so they operate at nearly full force in either direction. They have a round body—the most common style of air cylinder—making them more compact and better suited for tight spaces than cylinders with external tie rods. All are universal mount, so they have threads on both ends. The back end has a pivot bushing, which allows for more mounting options than nose-mount cylinders.

These air cylinders have a magnetic piston that can activate relays and controllers when used with a sensor (sold separately). When the piston moves past a sensor, the sensor activates. You can use multiple sensors—attach one for each action to trigger.

Move optical equipment and other electronics sensitive to dust and fine particles from a range of mounting positions. These air slides have a port that connects to a vacuum or exhaust system to remove particles created by friction inside the slide before they contaminate your space. Compared to standard air slides, these slides have a platform that extends the mounting surface to the top of the slide. This design reduces the total space needed for a full stroke length. Two guide rods keep the head steady as it extends and retracts.

A magnetic piston inside these slides activates relays and controllers when used with a sensor (sold separately). When the piston moves past the sensor, the sensor activates. You can use multiple sensors—one for each action you want to trigger.
