AIRPEL Frictionless cylinders

Airpel Anti-Stiction® Air Cylinders are built with an outer stainless steel sleeve and outwardly resemble common single acting and double acting air cylinders with standard mounting configurations. However, that's where the similarity ends because the Airpel uses an inner glass cylinder and graphite piston which exhibit starting and running friction from less than 0.5% to 2% of load depending upon model, can operate at less than 2 psi, have no interference seals, use no lubrication, and can be used over an extreme temperature range with no change in performance. They are available in 3 Imperial and 4 metric bore sizes and strokes up to one meter.

• Single or double acting cylinders (Single acting for Airpel Plus)
• Typical air cylinder mounting configurations
• Operate with vacuum or pressure in either direction (Single acting only for Airpel Plus)
• Can be pivoted
• Outer Steel sleeve
• Friction less than 2% of load (less than 0.5% for Airpel Plus models)
• Operate with less than .2 psi
