The F
Series is a Non-Rotating NFPA Interchangeable pneumatic
cylinder line that provides the solution to specific applications where
piston rotation is not acceptable. Our innovative dual rod design
provides precision positioning and linear movement. This makes the F
Series ideal for a multitude of high-tech applications.

Features
| The file hard (60RC)
high strength aluminum alloy lobe tube provides a smooth, corrosion-free
abrasion-resistant sealing surface. The lobe feature offers excellent
performance in washdown applications. (Lobe tubing provided except in
3%" & 4" bores, which are tie rod cylinders.)
| Head and cap are
machined from (6061-T6) solid aluminum bar and anodized for corrosion
resistance. A recess at the piston mating surface creates greater piston
area exposed to air for a faster breakaway.
| A removable close
grain, graphite-filled, cast iron bushing offers the best bearing surface
for the hard chrome plated piston rod. The extra long bushing offers
excellent load bearing characteristics.
| A unique rod
seal/wiper combination has high abrasion resistance for extended seal life.
| Hard chrome plated,
turned ground and polished, high strength steel (100,000 psi minimum yield)
piston rod provides maximum life of the bearing and seals.
| The steel retaining
plate has two functions, retaining the bushing and preventing rod rotation.
Closely held tolerances on the plate and bushing allow a precise fit to
prevent rotation. By removing the four countersunk screws that maintain
exact alignment, the orientation of the piston rods and tooling plate can be
rotated 90 degrees without cylinder disassembly.
| The piston seal is a
specially treated carboxilated nitrile designed for use in no lube added
service. The construction prevents rolling and seals at all pressures.
| The extra wide wear
band is located at the furthest point from the rod bushing to support
maximum loading.
| The solid aluminum
alloy piston is strong and lightweight.
| The floating cushion
design gives the fastest stroke reversal possible by providing instantaneous
full flow to piston. Each cushion has a flush, retained adjustment needle.
| The tube seals are
compression type and reusable |
