Collection: Guided Pneumatic Cylinders

Guided pneumatic cylinders combine pneumatic movement with an integrated guide mechanism to support the load and control alignment. Unlike a standard unsupported piston rod, the guided arrangement is designed to resist rotation and manage certain side-load or moment conditions.

Guided cylinders and compact slide units are commonly used in pick-and-place systems, transfer equipment, assembly machinery, handling systems, fixtures, jigs and repetitive positioning applications. They can be used for lifting, lowering, pushing, stopping, locating and transferring components.

Selection depends on more than bore and stroke. Check the guide type, allowable load, moment capacity, mounting orientation, platform dimensions, port size and complete dimensional specification before replacing a guided actuator.
