In stock and ready to ship.

Air cylinder mounting styles. Tie rod mounts and flange mounts can be used for many similar applications. Typical velocities range up to 24 inches per second. Other mounting styles support attachment to the auto switch. With 8 bore sizes 20 nfpa mounting styles and a variety of other options the 4ma is easily adaptable to practically any application.

The aluminum body and end caps make the 2mnr a light weight solution. The 4ma series cylinder is a ruggedly constructed highly configurable all purpose design. Flange mounts can provide greater rigidity and strength helping reduce the chance of misalignment. Centerline mounts the best way to support a cylinder is along its centerline.

Hard anodized aluminum lightweight cylinder body. Premium quality and economy in one. Many air cylinders commonly have a round body made of steel stainless steel aluminum or brass. The 2mnr cylinder is ruggedly constructed with a non rotating piston design.

For this reason side mounted cylinders produce a torque moment as the cylinder moves the load. Here s a closer look at each. Common pneumatic cylinders follow global standards for inter changeability and the two most common standards are iso 6432 for mini round cylinders ø 8 25 mm and iso 15552 for profile cylinders ø 32 320 mm. The aluminum body and machined aluminum end caps make the 4ma a light weight solution.

Cylinder mounting styles fall into three major groups. Aluminum tube with steel tie rods. Cylinder mounting hardware from grainger includes the accessories you need to mount a variety of air cylinder types in the mounting style of your choice. A pneumatic cylinder is a mechanical device that creates a linear motion by converting energy from compressed air.

Fixed mounts that absorb force along the cylinder centerline including extended tie rod centerline lug and flange mounts should be used whenever possible. Pneumatic cylinder mounting accessories how they work. Cylinder piston and rod velocity is dependent on the rate that fluid or compressed air can be introduced into one end of the cylinder or exhausted from the other end. Lightweight construction and solid non lube design with proven reliability make the series 2ma cylinder the high performance long lasting economical choice for your air cylinder applications.

Air cylinders can have front nose basic style double clevis or another mounting style used for attachment to rigid surfaces. These mounting styles have lugs on the end closures and one style has side tapped holes for flush mounting. The plane of their mounting surface is not through the centerline of the cylinder.
