Air Cylinder Mounting Styles

Cylinder mounting styles fall into three major groups.

Air cylinder mounting styles.

Air cylinders can have front nose basic style double clevis or another mounting style used for attachment to rigid surfaces. Flange mounts can provide greater rigidity and strength helping reduce the chance of misalignment. Choose from our selection of air cylinder mounts including round body air cylinders tie rod air cylinders and more. Tie rod mounts and flange mounts can be used for many similar applications.

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. Here s a closer look at each. Pneumatic cylinder mounting accessories how they work. The plane of their mounting surface is not through the centerline of the cylinder.

With 6 bore sizes 10 nfpa mounting styles and a variety of options the 2mnr is easily adaptable. Aluminum tube with steel tie rods. These mounting styles have lugs on the end closures and one style has side tapped holes for flush mounting. For this reason side mounted cylinders produce a torque moment as the cylinder moves the load.

The aluminum body and machined aluminum end caps make the 4ma a light weight solution. Typical velocities range up to 24 inches per second. Miller recommends that cylinders be ordered with cushions when maximum velocities exceed 2 inches per second. In stock and ready to ship.

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. 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. 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.

Fixed mounts that absorb force along the cylinder centerline including extended tie rod centerline lug and flange mounts should be used whenever possible.
