ASCO ROTATABLE CYLINDERS ˜ 12 - 20 mm - double acting with 2 positions (90°-180°) Series 429,Type R

Part Number : ROTATABLE CYLINDERS Ø 12 - 20 mm/Series 429/ Type R

Part No. Series 429 R

The ASCO Series 429 Type R is a double-acting rotatable pneumatic cylinder with 12 to 20 mm bore sizes and two selectable end positions at 90° or 180°. It converts linear pneumatic actuation into compact rotary movement for turning, orienting, flipping and transfer applications. Genuine ASCO cylinder, supplied in the UAE by General Tech Services LLC. Pricing is quote-based. Request a quote in under a minute - call +971 6 543 6933.

The Series 429 Type R provides pneumatic rotation in both directions, allowing controlled and repeatable indexing between two defined positions. Its compact design and small bore range make it suitable for light-duty automation where reducing actuator size and end-of-arm inertia is important.

A 90° configuration can be used for turning and orienting tasks, while a 180° configuration can be used for flipping or transferring components between two stations. The required bore should be selected according to the load and torque requirements of the application.

Before ordering, confirm the required rotation angle, load, cycle time, working pressure and mounting arrangement. General Tech Services LLC can verify the appropriate Series 429 configuration from your application requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the ASCO Series 429 Type R?
It is a double-acting rotatable pneumatic cylinder with 12 to 20 mm bore sizes and two-position operation at 90° or 180°.

What is the difference between 90° and 180° rotation?
A 90° configuration is suited to turning and orienting tasks, while 180° rotation can be used for flipping or transferring components between two stations.

Is the Series 429 Type R double acting?
Yes. Compressed air provides controlled rotary movement in both directions.

What load can the Series 429 handle?
The Series 429 Type R is intended for light-duty rotary applications. The appropriate bore depends on the load, required torque, rotation time and operating conditions. Provide your application details to General Tech Services LLC for configuration confirmation.

How do I choose the correct Series 429 cylinder?
Confirm the required bore, rotation angle, load, torque, cycle time, working pressure and mounting arrangement. Send your application requirements to General Tech Services LLC for compatibility confirmation.

What type of compressed air does it need?
Use clean, dry and filtered compressed air. If lubrication is introduced, maintain it consistently according to the applicable cylinder requirements.

Is there a linear alternative?
ASCO Series 445 Type STG rodless cylinders are available for linear-motion applications requiring long strokes in a compact machine layout.
