Common Types of Cylinders

There are many different cylinder types. The most common are listed below:
Single acting cylinder - a cylinder in which air pressure is applied to the movable
element (piston) in only one direction.


 

Spring return cylinder - a cylinder in which a spring
returns the piston assembly.
 

Ram cylinder - a cylinder in which the movable element is the piston rod.
 

Double acting cylinder - a cylinder in which air pressure may be alternately applied
to the piston to drive it in either direction.
 

Double acting – double rod cylinder - Double acting cylinder with a
piston rod extending form each end. The piston rods are connected to
the same piston. Double rod cylinders provide equal force and speed in
both directions.
