Note: These figures are for new cylinders. The impact dampening seals will take some compression set during operation
of the cylinder and the stroke loss will decrease. Also, the pressure at zero stroke loss will decrease to about 80 psi.
At pressures above those of zero stroke loss, a slight clicking sound may be produced during impact.
To determine the stroke loss for either the head or cap end, divide the value shown by 2.

Cushion Function
As the cushion spear enters the cushion cavity, the exhaust

port becomes sealed off creating an air brake. This provides
the initial deceleration in piston speed. The oversized air
cushion bleed orifice permits the cushion pressure to exhaust
with minimal restriction. This allows the piston to move
quickly and smoothly through the cushion length.
As the piston continues its travel to the point of impact with the
end caps, the compressive qualities of the EJ seal provide the
final decelerating force. This action compresses the EJ seal and
absorbs the remaining kinetic shock vibration and noise
created by the impact.
On the reverse stroke the EJ seal releases its compressive

energy to propel the piston away from the end caps,
producing an immediate breakaway.

Note: These figures are for new cylinders. The impact dampening seals will take some compression set during operation
of the cylinder and the stroke loss will decrease. Also, the pressure at zero stroke loss will decrease to about 80 psi.
At pressures above those of zero stroke loss, a slight clicking sound may be produced during impact.
To determine the stroke loss for either the head or cap end, divide the value shown by 2.

Cushion Function
As the cushion spear enters the cushion cavity, the exhaust

port becomes sealed off creating an air brake. This provides
the initial deceleration in piston speed. The oversized air
cushion bleed orifice permits the cushion pressure to exhaust
with minimal restriction. This allows the piston to move
quickly and smoothly through the cushion length.
As the piston continues its travel to the point of impact with the
end caps, the compressive qualities of the EJ seal provide the
final decelerating force. This action compresses the EJ seal and
absorbs the remaining kinetic shock vibration and noise
created by the impact.
On the reverse stroke the EJ seal releases its compressive

energy to propel the piston away from the end caps,
producing an immediate breakaway.

associated with misalignment. Integral flow paths molded in
the periphery of the seal provide exceptionally fast out of
cushion stroke reversal without the use of ball checks.

Ultra Cushion Seals are made of nitrile* captured within

a precision machined groove. The seals linear and
radial float eliminates misalignment and provides
exceptionally fast out of cushion stroke reversal.
*Nitrile seals on the 5/8" and 1" rod diameter. For rod sizes 13/8" and larger urethane seals are standard.
Explanation of Decel-Air Cushion:

Norgrens Decel Cushioned cylinder was designed for applications
where high velocity, low mass, material transfer or machine
function is required, and where the kinetic energy to be absorbed
during cushioning exceeds the parameters of our standard Series
EA or EJ air cylinders equipped with non-adjustable or adjustable
cushions. Decel cushions employ longer-than-standard air
cushions to assist our Impact Dampening Piston Seal.
Why does our Decel-Air Cushion work?

The extra cushion length of the Decel cushioned cylinder provides
an additional deceleration capability to slow the cylinders moving
mass to a point where the positive cushioning effect of our Impact
Dampening Piston Seals can perform the final cushioning.
Norgrens Decel-Air Cushioned Cylinders

Versus
Cylinder Mounted Shock Absorbers
The first extensive evaluation of pneumatic cylinder cushion
performance was undertaken by the Mechanical Engineering
Department of The Ohio State University. The test was conducted
on 2-1/2" bore, 12" stroke.
The OSU tests found the Decel Cushioned cylinders absorbed
almost three times as much kinetic energy with a lower level of
peak cushion as a standard Ecology seal configured cylinder.
ACT-12
Because air is compressible and is exhausted out of the cylinder

each cycle, the internal heat buildup is minimized. The Maximum
Inch Pounds Per Hour rating which is essential in determining
the effectiveness of shock absorber performance is not needed to
judge Decel cushion performance.
The test indicated that Norgren Decel-Air Cushioned cylinders
could prove to be superior to a hydralic shock absorber assisted
cylinder for high cycle, high velocity applications with light to
moderate loading (precisely the area where most severe cylinder
applications exist). The cycle rates and the cushioning times of the
Decel-Air Cushioned cylinders and the hydraulic shock absorber
assisted cylinders were comparable.*
Decel-Air Cushioned cylinders are also less costly than shock
absorber mounted cylinders and are self-contained units.
*For comparative evaluation, a well-known hydraulic shock
absorber was chosen. The OSU tests showed a smooth shockabsorbing operation was achieved at very low velocities using the
shock absorbers, but at comparable Decel Cushion cylinder
velocities, a high mechanical impact took place on the shock
absorber mounted cylinder.

The Decel Cushioned cylinder increases the kinetic energy absorption
capability by increasing the effective cushion spear length in the
cylinder.
The Decel Cushioned cylinder increases the standard cushion spear
length by 100%, allowing an increase in kinetic energy absorption
capability by two times.

Rod Alignment Coupler

The Rod Alignment Coupler allows 1/16" of radial float and
2 of spherical movement. This prevents cylinder binding
due to misalignment thus
extending bearing and seal life, and permits
greater tolerance between the centerline of the cylinder and
mating part for simplified installation.

Air-Oil Tank
Available in 5 practical bore sizes: 1-1/8", 2", 3-1/4", 5", and
8", the Air-Oil Tank includes a translucent fiberglass tube
which permits viewing of the tank oil level from any position,
internal baffles that reduce foaming and aeration of the
system oil resulting in maximum cylinder control, and
standard angle mounting brackets (except 1-1/8" bore) easily
removed for convenient fluid port positioning.

Piston Rod Diameter Selection
Applications requiring long extend (push) strokes may require oversize
piston rod diameters to prevent buckling.
To determine the correct rod diameter for your application
follow these simple steps:
1. Select the force from the Cylinder Force and Volume Chart that is
required for your application. For pressures not shown use:
Force = Piston Surface Area x Operating Pressure
2. From the Cylinder Mounting Diagram Chart (next page) select the
mounting style being used.
3. To obtain effective length L, multiply cylinder stroke by appropriate
stroke factor located in Cylinder Mounting Diagram Chart . If cylinder
has extra rod extension add this to the stroke length before obtaining
effective length. Effective Length = Actual Stroke x Stroke Factor
4. To determine adequate rod diameter locate calculated effective length

L on Rod Selection chart (below).
5. Selecting Stop Tubes: Stop tubes enhance the transverse load carrying
capability of a long stroke cylinder by increasing the distance between
the piston and rod bearing at full extension. When the value of L
(calculated from the Adequate Rod Diameter Chart) is less than 40", a
stop tube is not required. However, if L is 40" or more, 1" of stop tube
is recommended for every 10" (or fraction thereof) over 40".
6. Recommended Mounting Styles for Maximum Stroke and Thrust Load:
Multiply cylinder stroke by appropriate stroke factor to obtain
effective length L.
If cylinder has extra rod extension, add this extension to the stroke
length before obtaining effective length.

Note: In some cases it may be necessary to use a larger bore cylinder than is required for force in order to obtain an adequate rod diameter.
ACT-25
ACTUATORS
Enhances the transverse load carrying

capability of a long stroke cylinder by
increasing the distance between the piston
and rod bearing at full extension when
placed on head end. Ideal for those
applications requiring longer strokes or
where additional rod stability is desired.
TO ORDER: Enter option code ST(C) Cap
End or ST(R) Rod End. Specify stop tube
length.
NOTE: ST(R) Alternate design: the stop tube
rod end design changes when the stop tube
exceeds J lengths in the chart.

Tie Rod Tightening:

In order to reduce the possibility of cylinder binding or damage,
tighten to quarter unit increments of the final torque value in the
following order: #1, #2, #3, #4.
Then torque fully to the recommended foot pounds in the same order.
Tie Rod Supports:

For long strokes, tie rod supports are provided. These supports are of the same
envelope dimensions as the cylinder end caps.
NOTE: See chart for number of tie rod supports required.

LS Series NFPA cylinder

Improved load carrying qualities
Ecology seal improves load dampening
Alignment coupler installed in tooling plate for self-alignment of
cylinder rod to tooling plate connection prevents binding.
Technical data
NFPA tie rod cylinder
Bore sizes: 1-1/2" and 2"
Operating pressure: 250 psi max.
Temperature range: -20F to 200F (-29C to 107C)
Porting: 3/8 NPT
Ecology piston seals available (fixed cushion, adjustable or extra
long Decel-Air" cushions)
Universal mounting (sleeve nut construction): Ease of cylinder
removal (modular)
ACTUATORS
Linear thruster materials of construction

Body and tooling plate: Anodized aluminum alloy.
Guide rods: Hardened high carbon bearing quality steel.
Bushings: Composite (Teflon lined) self-lubricating or linear roller
bearing.
Felt washers: oil impregnated
Retaining rings: to ensure bearing location.
Alignment coupler: carbon steel
Decel-Air" Cushions
Norgren's Decel cushioned cylinder was designed for
applications where high velocity, low mass, material function or
machine function is required, and where the kinetic energy to
be absorbed during cushioning exceeds the parameters of
standard cylinders equipped with Ecology piston seals and
fixed or adjustable cushions. Decel cushions employ longerthan-standard air cushions to assist our Impact Dampening
Piston Seal.
Cylinder materials of construction

Piston rod: Chrome plated high strength carbon
steel
Tie rods: High strength carbon steel
Seals: Nitrile piston, piston rod and tube seals,
Urethane piston rod wiper.
Wearband: Teflon and graphite composite
Cylinder tube: Aluminum with hardcoat anodize
Rod bearing: Oil impregnated sintered iron
Endcaps: A and EA Series cylinder - aluminum
J and EJ Series cylinder - steel
