The Series G438 round-body design provides a compact and lightweight solution for applications such as pushing, lifting, ejecting and positioning where installation space is limited. Double-acting operation uses compressed air for both extension and retraction, providing controlled movement in both directions.

The 100 mm stroke is indicated by the ASCO code. Flow controls can be used to adjust cylinder speed, while compatible Series 494 position detectors can help a control system confirm cylinder end positions.

For replacement applications, matching the complete cylinder code helps maintain the required mounting, rod-end and stroke configuration. Before ordering, confirm the available working pressure, load, cycle rate and existing cylinder code.

ASCO 44100180 short-stroke cylinder is also available for applications requiring a shorter stroke.
