Pneumatic Cylinder & Actuator Accessories
Pneumatic cylinders and actuators often require various accessories to enhance their functionality, improve mounting options, and ensure precise control and long-term reliability. These accessories play a vital role in tailoring systems to specific applications.
Common Accessories
- Mounting Brackets: Used to securely install cylinders in different orientations (flange, foot, clevis, trunnion, etc.).
- Rod Clevises and Eye Brackets: Allow attachment to loads or mechanical linkages.
- Pivot Pins: Used with clevis or trunnion mounts to allow angular motion.
- Cushioning Devices: Absorb impact at the end of strokes to reduce wear and noise.
- Proximity Sensors: Detect piston position and send signals for automation or feedback control.
- Rod Boots and Bellows: Protect piston rods from dust, debris, and contaminants.
- Flow Control Valves: Regulate the speed of cylinder movement by controlling airflow.
- Magnetic Rings: Enable external sensing of piston position when paired with magnetic sensors.
Why Accessories Are Important
- Ensure correct alignment and secure installation
- Improve durability and reduce mechanical stress
- Enable integration into automated systems
- Enhance control and performance
Application Examples
- Mounting brackets used to attach a cylinder to a conveyor system
- Proximity sensors used for stroke-end detection in a packaging machine
- Rod boots used in dirty environments like food processing or mining

FLANGE, SMC, CS2-F16
CS2-F16
The SMC Air cylinder is a double acting, non lube air cylinder. Aluminium die cast is used for both the rod and head covers, which means a maximum weight reduction of approximately 50 percent. This series is available in bore sizes 125mm, 140mm and 160mm with maximum strokes up to 1600mm. Air cushions are standard on both ends. Other options include auto switches, rod boots, and Rc, NPT or G thread types.
