Standard Air Cylinder (Compact Style)

SMC has redesigned the CQ2 compact cylinder with a new body, making it possible to mount auto switches on any of the 4 surfaces, depending on the installation conditions.  Auto switch mounting grooves have replaced the CQ2's mounting rails, preventing projection of auto switches and improving ease and safety of work.

The CQS compact cylinder is available for those small bore cylinder applications where saving space is a concern. While sharing many of the outstanding features of the (N)CQ2 series, the CQS offers standard long strokes (up to 300mm) in four bore sizes from 12 to 25mm. Long stroke versions incorporate a wear band and thicker piston to handle the increased bearing needs of the longer strokes. Both switch capable and non-switch capable body styles are the same, and switches can be mounted on three (12-16 bore) and four (20-25 bore) sides. An increased side load version (CQS*S) is available for more demanding applications.
