Put your workpieces in pole position with this pneumatic piston rod cylinder from IMI Norgren. You can use it to place, clamp and eject small parts with precision. It's built with compact dimensions of just 145.5 (L) x 47 (W) x 47mm (D), making it a smart option for installation in a tight spot. As a double-acting cylinder, it gives you control in both directions of the stroke. Air cushioning reduces impact and vibration for smooth operation and helps extend the unit's lifespan.

• Operating temperature range of -20°C to +80°C makes it suitable for harsh industrial environments
• PU seals minimise friction for a long service life
• Switches can be mounted flush with the profile barrel to help you build a compact system

• Factory automation
• Packaging lines
• Transportation industry

A double-action piston rod cylinder like this one has two ports, one at each end. This enables air to be forced through it in both directions, powering a return stroke. Single-action cylinders, by contrast, rely on a spring for the return stroke.
