A Lighter and More Economical Repairable Cylinder (NCG)
The repairable NCG cylinder is lighter and more economical than
a conventional tie-rod style cylinder and can withstand higher side
loads than a compact cylinder. More importantly, the NCG series has
a repairable design that allows routine seal maintenance, extending
the cylinder life far beyond the life of crimp-style cylinders. The
repairable construction is made possible by threading the cylinder
cover onto the aluminum cylinder tube. This design allows for quick
and easy maintenance and can extend the cylinder life
significantly. Also, the tube and covers are hard anodized to
improve impact and scratch resistance. In addition to these
features, a piston wear ring is available as standard to improve
the side loading capabilities. The NCG series is available in six
bore sizes ranging from 20mm to 63mm and with eight different
mounting styles including foot, flange, and pivot mountings. NCG
cylinders are now stocked at SMC's Indianapolis production
facility. Cylinders can be shipped directly from stock or
accessorized with mounting kits and/or auto-switches in the
factory.
