UNIQUE DESIGN FEATURES PolySlide cylinder tubing offers many unique features to the Fluid Power Industry for pneumaticand hydraulic applications. By providing the industry with a more versatile cylinder material than traditional metallic cylinder tubing, the PolySlide cylinder can not only be a direct replacement for current applications, but opens new cylinder design opportunities by eliminating limitations com- mon to metals.PolySlide cylinders can be provided in various ways, from a simple cylindertube cut to length for cus-tomer assembly, to a completely designed cylindersystem...

UNIQUE DESIGN FEATURES CORROSION RESISTANCE (CONTINUED) DIELECTRICALLY INSULTABLECYLINDER Polygons chemical exposure recommendations are based on long term exposure by physical containment of these chemicals in question. For short term exposures, PolySlide cylinders may work fine even for those not recommended chemicals. Contact PolygonҒs Sales Engineers with any questions concerning chemical exposure. The PolySlide cylinder is a dielectrically insultablematerial. It will not conduct electricity. It is ideal for external limit switch positioning controls and other types of electronic...

SEAL DESIGN The same conventional design criteria being used in normal fluid power cylinder application areapplicable with PolySlide cylinders. For current applications where PolySlide is a direct replacement for a metallic cylinder tube, thesame piston seal design can normally be used. The PolySlide wear surface shown above (at magnification) after a high cycle speed test againstlegacy-era gel-coated tubing. After 300,000 cycles, the PolySlide surface retained its smooth sur- face with minimal deposition of seal material. The granular materials shown in this picture are parts of the...

End caps can be designed in various ways to meet specified requirements. The simplest meansof attaching the ends to the cylinder is by the use of tie rods; however, Polygon has experience with other end cap attachment techniques. For common cylinder sizes using tie rods see the table on the previous page for design details.Pre-load torque values are given here. PolySlide cylinders offer smoother walls, excellentimpingement resistance, a wide temperature range, are resistant to corrosion and are lighter weight than their metal counterparts. The perfect com- bination for your next cylinder...

PolySightٙ composite tubing is a perfect alternative toconventional sight glass. Polygon engineers devel- oped PolySight years ago for use with oil reservoir systems. The extra strength of these filament wound composites will keep PolySight tubes from denting or chipping. Thanks to their high strength, low cost and light-weight characteristics, they are ideal substitutes for most of todays metal and thermoplastic products. The distinct translucent benefits are a result of PolygonҒsdesign and manufacturing strengths, which work to your advantage when used in highly-pressur- ized, critical...
