N5 SeriesMounting Application Data

Side- and Center-line Mountings These mounts should be keyed or pinned to prevent shiftingduring operation. Keys or pins must be strong enough toresist the full thrust of the cylinder. The lugs on A and H mounts are large enough to accommodate dowel pins. Extended key plates for stock and custom cylinder models are available when specified. Pin or key the head whenever possible. Do not pin or key both ends. Cylinders become longer when pressure is applied and tube will tend to buckle.The alignment and center-line height on the E mount are main-tained by accurately machined surfaces on the head and cap which are held against the mounting surface by the end lugs. End and Intermediate Pivot Mountings Trunnion and pivot pins are designed to carry shear loadsonly. Trunnion and pivot bearings must fit closely for theentire length of the pin. Hold the trunnion bearings rigidly and in accurate alignment.

DESCRIPTIONMOUNTNFPAN5 BORES

The head and cap rectangular mounts G and P should beused for hydraulic applications to avoid excessive deflectionwhich occurs on the F and R mountings.Refer to the chart on page 13 for pressure ratings for Fmounts in push and R mounts in pull.The G, P, J and S mounts are usable in both push and pull atfull rated hydraulic pressures as shown on page 27.

Piston to rod joints arethreaded, anaerobicallysealed and secured, andstaked (single rod ends). Under normal operating con-ditions, additional securing isnot necessary. However, in applications where: 1) tem-peratures exceed 250ËšF, 2)pressure spike or impact shock is present, or 3) a pis-ton previously detached, thepiston should be pinned; thismust be specified whenordering. Consult factory for other securing methods.
