Pneumatic cylinders ISO 15552
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.
