| Bore Diameter | 25-500 mm | |
| Stroke Length | Customizable per application | |
| Mounting Style | Foot, flange, trunnion, clevis | |
| Surface Finish | Ra 0.4-0.8 μm (bore) | |
| Pressure Rating | Up to 350 bar (hydraulic), 16 bar (pneumatic) | |
| Straightness Tolerance | 0.01 mm per 100 mm |

This component is used in the following industrial products
A mechanical component that converts energy into motion to apply clamping force in tool clamping systems.
A device that converts energy into mechanical motion to apply or release force in brake/clutch systems.
A mechanical component within an ignition lock assembly that houses the keyway and tumblers, enabling key insertion and rotation to engage/disengage the lock mechanism.

Hydraulic housings are designed for higher pressure (typically 70-350 bar) with thicker walls and premium materials, while pneumatic housings operate at lower pressures (typically 6-16 bar) with lighter construction and often aluminum materials.
Consider operating pressure (steel for high pressure, aluminum for lightweight), corrosion environment (stainless for corrosive conditions), temperature range, and compatibility with hydraulic fluids or lubricants.
Regular inspection for external damage, checking for bore scoring or corrosion, ensuring mounting bolts remain tight, and verifying port connections remain leak-free. Periodic replacement of seals is needed but the housing itself typically lasts the equipment lifetime.
