Pneumatic cylinders ISO 15552
Cylinder
Pneumatic cylinders to ISO 15552 are the most widely used design for medium and large bore sizes in industrial pneumatics. The standard defines bore diameters from 32 to 320 mm, port dimensions, mounting threads and attachment dimensions for swivel accessories, enabling cross-manufacturer substitution without redesigning the machine. The range includes double-acting cylinders in steel and stainless steel, together with a comprehensive mounting programme: foot plates, flange mountings, six types of swivel mounting, bearing blocks, clevis connectors, guide units and locking units.
For demanding conditions, stainless-steel profile cylinders TM (grade 1.4301) are available for corrosive environments. The accessories programme covers all ISO 15552-specified mounting configurations from simple foot plates to centre swivel mountings XL and bolts for spherical lugs.

| Type | Mounting method | Application |
|---|---|---|
| TA (foot plate) | Rigid foot mounting | Fixed axis direction, simple installation |
| TB (flange) | End-face flange mounting | Axial mounting in plates |
| TC (fork) | Fork swivel, freely rotating | Articulation with angular movement |
| TD (90° lug) | Lug swivel 90° | Swivel mounting perpendicular to axis |
| TE (spherical lug) | Ball-joint swivel | Three-dimensional angular movement |
| FF / FFQ (bolt) | Bolt for swivel accessories | Connection of swivel bearing to bracket |
Typical applications: General machine automation with medium force requirements, fixture and clamping machine construction, conveying and lifting systems, food and pharmaceutical production (stainless TM cylinders), installations with frequent cylinder replacement (ISO 15552 standardisation ensures manufacturer independence).
