1 ® PRODUCT OVERVIEW Rotating cylinders have basic components which dictate the function and design of the cylinder. Inlet Assembly - The inlet assembly, sometimes called the distributor, can be designed in two ways. It can have a fixed position in relation to the piston housing; or it can float with the stroke of the cylinder (“reciprocating inlet”). Trapping - This safety feature allows the cylinder to remain pressurized, and the chuck to maintain clamping pressure, in the event of a power loss. Viton seals - The seals keep compressed air or hydraulic fluid captured within the cylinder....

5 ® RECIPROCATING CYLINDERS ITW’s reciprocating cylinder is designed for applications when stroke and cylinder mounting clearances are restricted. The compact inlet/switch bracket assembly moves with the stroke of the piston. This feature eliminates the need for extra space taken up by traditional solid center cylinders with trip rods and rotating unions. Other features include: • Third port for air or coolant through the piston rod • Male pilot mount • Safety trapping • Direct metric replacement for SMW Autoblok. Capable of replacing Rohm original equipment cylinders. DIMENSIONS AND...
