Products & Service “GOLDEN RULES” to ensure maximum efficiency from pneumatic systems THE CYLINDER Correct sizing is based upon the required force and applied pressure. At page 10 the tables show the theoretical thrust (outstroke) and theoretical pull (instroke) expressed in Newtons for single and double acting cylinders. For piston rod cylinders the effective area of the rod side is the piston area minus the area of the piston rod, (if not a rodless cylinder). It is strongly recommended that a factor of safety be included in all sizing calculations - on dynamic applications this should be 50%...
