Unlike other air cylinders that push and pull one object, these double-ended cylinders push one object while pulling another. A common use for them is creating coordinated motion between two gates—opening one while the other closes. These cylinders are not repairable, so just swap in new ones when they wear out.

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

Simplify your setup by running fluid or air through the hollow piston in these air cylinders. Use them to move loads while also lubricating equipment or blowing debris off parts with compressed air. The rod extends from both ends, so they can push an object and pull another at the same time, unlike standard air cylinders. For example, they can coordinate motion between two gates by opening one while closing the other. They’re double acting, so they use air to exert force when they both extend and retract.

These cylinders have a round body without external tie rods, so they fit in tight spaces. To mount them, use the threads on the ends of the cylinder.

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.
