SMC Linear Compact Cylinders
A compact cylinder functions in the same manner as a basic cylinder with both single acting and double acting, single or double rod, and non-rotating models. However, SMC compact cylinders minimize space requirements allowing for precise, direct mounting in the least amount of space possible.
The CQS compact cylinder is available for those small bore cylinder applications where saving space is a concern. The CQS offers standard long strokes (up to 300mm) in four bore sizes from 12 to 25mm. Long stroke versions incorporate a wear band and thicker piston to handle the increased bearing needs of the longer strokes. Both switch capable and non-switch capable body styles are the same, and switches can be mounted on three (12-16 bore) and four (20-25 bore) sides. An increased side load version (CQS*S) is available for more demanding applications.

Mountings: basic, foot, front and rear flange, double clevis
Bore sizes: 12, 16, 20, 25mm
Strokes up to 50mm

Minimum operating pressure 0.01 to 0.03 MPa
The smooth operation can be maintained even at low speeds (5mm/sec)
Bi-directional low-friction allows smooth operation during cylinder extend and retract
Smooth operation with less sticking and slipping
Pressure can be controlled regardless of its direction
The CQU series was designed to be a lightweight, compact plate type cylinder. The series is available in bore sizes 20mm, 25mm, 32mm, and 40mm. Auto switches can be mounted without removing mounting brackets. It is possible to mount a small auto switch in 4 directions. CQU mountings include through hole/double end tapped (standard), a vertical foot bracket, horizontal foot bracket, and double clevis.
