Air Cylinders

iPolymer Air Cylinders are used where splash-back or fumes from highly aggressive chemicals are prime concerns. These Polypropylene or PVDF cylinders provide strength, durability and reliability in severe service actuation applications near corrosive chemicals.

Air cylinders are available in strokes from 1–16 inches and have standard easy-to-use mounting and optional position sensors. Our Air Cylinders are design to drive: 90 lbf | 400 N | 40.8 kg.

The weight an Air Cylinder can push and pull depends on the orientation, sliding surface friction, gravity, desired speed, travel distance, available air pressure, the pneumatic circuit design, and other factors.

iPolymer PVC, Polypro, and PVDF Air Cylinders

Applications

  • Remotely actuate doors, drawers
  • Actuate drains and vents
  • Repositioning of process loads

Performance

*Some efficeincey loss is associated with exhaust rate and friction loss due to O-ring drag expected. Design systems accordingly with minimum 10X safety margin.
