OPTIONS: SERIES CTS COMPACT GUIDE ROD CYLINDERS SHOCK PADS ON EXTENSION AND RETRACTION Shock pads eliminate metal-to-metal contact and minimize piston impact. Shock pads are recommended for applications where the piston contacts the head and/or cap (with attached loads). The use of shock pads reduces noise and provides maximum cylinder life in these applications. SHOCK PADS EXTENDED LENGTH WRENCH FLATS The design of a compact guide rod cylinder requires the length to be as short as possible. The standard wrench flat length is .125" [3 mm]. The option -F11 provides wrench flats which allow...

OPTIONS: SERIES CTS COMPACT GUIDE ROD CYLINDERS MAGNET FOR PHD SERIES 6790 & JC1 SWITCHES SERIES 6790 & JC1 SWITCHES PART NO. This option equips the cylinder with a magnetic band on the piston for use with PHD Series 6790 and JC1 Switches. These switches mount easily into the integral slots in the body and are locked into place with a set screw. PHD recommends the use of stainless steel or de-magnetized fasteners when mounting Series CTx Cylinders equipped with the -M option. The design of a compact guide rod cylinder requires the length to be as short as possible. Installation of switches...

MOUNTINGS & ACCESSORIES: SERIES CTS CYLINDERS K MOUNTS J mounting provides foot brackets (with mounting feet under the cylinder) with minimal distance between the cylinder and mounting surface. This mounting comes preassembled by PHD with proper tool plate extension. NOTE: Double rods will also receive H standard extension. K mounting provides foot brackets (with mounting feet extended outward from the cylinder.) Mounting is simplified with mounting holes away from the body. This mounting comes preassembled by PHD with proper tool plate extension. NOTE: Double rods will also receive H...
