Product catalog summary
Pneumatic Tie Rod Cylinder Overview
The document provides a detailed overview of pneumatic tie rod cylinders, highlighting key components such as the Enersorb® Piston, high-strength anodized aluminum tubes, stainless steel tie rods, and floating cushion seals. These features contribute to noise reduction and energy absorption. The operational temperature range is from -20ºF to 180ºF.

Specifications and Ordering
The document explains the ordering process for pneumatic tie rod cylinders, specifying bore sizes from 1 1/2” to 10”. It includes force charts for different bore and rod diameters at pressures of 60 psi, 80 psi, and 100 psi, noting that maximum usable forces are 80% of theoretical values.

Mounting Options
Various mounting styles are described, including no mount, flange, trunnion, clevis, eye, angle mounts, side lug, bottom tap, and pneumatic tie rod mounts, each with dimensional specifications.

Rod End Styles and Accessories
The document details rod end styles, including male and female threads, and accessories such as eye and clevis brackets. It also covers rod diameter selection and dual piston options.

Additional Features
Additional features include sensors, automotive shot pins, and air-transfer system shakers. The document concludes with special conditions and a limited warranty section.

Dimensional Specifications
Dimensional specifications for parts like eye brackets, pivot pins, rod studs, and jam nuts are provided, with part numbers and dimensions such as A, L, CB, CD, CH, CW, ER, and KK.

Rod Diameter Selection
Rod diameter selection is based on cylinder thrust load, mounting style, and stroke, with a chart provided for determining the appropriate diameter.

Maximum Allowable Cylinder Thrust Load
Charts show the maximum allowable thrust load for different rod sizes and mounting styles, with values for various stroke lengths.

Dual Piston Selection
Dual pistons are recommended for long strokes to prevent binding, with a chart provided for determining dual piston length.

Ordering Instructions
Instructions for ordering include specifying bore size, rod size, mount type, stroke, cushion type, port type, thread style, and additional options.

Rod End Styles and Thread Styles
Different rod end and thread styles are outlined, with specifications for male and female threads, and standard and oversize options.

Force Charts
Force charts show maximum usable extend and retract forces at 100 psi for different bore and rod sizes, considering stroke, speed, and friction.

Mounting and Dimensional Specifications
Details on mounting options such as flange mounts, side lug mounts, and bottom tap mounts are provided with their respective dimensional specifications.
