Parker XLT/XLR Cylinder

Designed for lighter loads, the XL Series slide provides precise, torque resistant linear motion in a very light weight, compact package. Built into the tooling plate, an alignment coupler allows the piston rod to self-center. This extends cylinder life especially when the support shafts deflect under load.

The housing is manufactured from anodized extruded aluminum incorporating "T" slots for mounting flexibility. Supported by the main body are four pre-lubricated recirculating ball bearings and two precision ground support shafts. Optional composite bushings may be specified. Outboard wiper seals protect the bearings from contamination and retain lubrication. This ensures long life with reduced maintenance. A pre-lubricated stainless steel air cylinder with a stainless steel piston rod provides thrust while the support shafts and bearings provide positive load support for millions of non-lube, trouble-free cycles.

XL Series options include reed, Hall effect and inductive proximity sensors, prox ready, bumpers, adjustable stop collars, dowel pin holes, flow controls, Fluorocarbon seals, and 3-position cylinders.

On the XLR, "T" slots support optional stroke adjusters, shock absorbers and proximity sensors. One adjustment moves all three components in unison – eliminating multiple iterations during setup.
