About Air Cylinders

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

Electric-, Air-, and Hydraulic-Powered Motion Control

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.

Mounts for Round Body Air Cylinders

default

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

Miniature Threaded-Body Air Cylinders

These cylinders thread directly into your equipment, taking minimal space.

Subminiature Round Body Air Cylinders

At less than two inches in length, these cylinders actuate small devices in spots where other cylinders don’t fit.

Short-Stroke Clamping Air Cylinders

Also known as air clamps, these cylinders are used to apply force in holding applications.

Threaded-Body Hydraulic Cylinders

Threaded-Body Hydraulic Cylinders

Small yet powerful, these cylinders thread into a system for workholding applications.

Universal Air Actuators for Flow-Control Valves

Universal Air Actuators for Flow-Control Valves

Attach these actuators to manual ball valves, butterfly valves, and plug valves with an ISO 5211 hole pattern to automatically start and stop flow with compressed air.
