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

Mounts for Round Body Air Cylinders

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

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.

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

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