Frequently Asked Questions
What is this Fabco-Air cylinder used for?
It is used for high-force pneumatic or compatible hydraulic actuation in compact machinery.
What bore size is this category?
5 inch
Why use a compact Pancake-style cylinder?
It provides linear force where machine space is limited, especially for short-stroke motion.
How do I calculate pneumatic cylinder force?
Theoretical force is piston area multiplied by air pressure, before efficiency and safety factors.
When should I consider a Multi-Power cylinder?
Use it when higher force is needed from shop air without moving to a much larger single-bore cylinder.
When should I consider a Longstroke cylinder?
Use it when the application needs more travel than a very short compact cylinder can provide.
Can magnetic sensing be used?
Many of these Fabco-Air cylinder families offer magnetic piston sensing; confirm the exact configuration.
What should I verify before ordering?
Confirm family, bore, stroke, pressure, mounting, rod end and sensing options.
