Product Detail
BC3
Quick Overview
RETICULATING BALL BEARING RODLESS CYLINDER
Max Operating Pressure: 100 PSI (7 bar)Bore Size: 1 to 2 in (25 to 50 mm)
The BC3 is the most capable pneumatic rodless cylinder in the industry today. Featuring durable stainless steel bands, a reliable recirculating ball bearing design and smooth, low breakaway pressure the BC3 is a great solution for applications with high load and bending moment requirements. Built-to-order in stroke lengths up to 205 inches.
Sealed Ball Bearing System
- All bearing components covered by seal strip
- Bearing components are sealed and lubricated at the factory
- Assures maximum resistance to contamination
Formed End Cap Wiper Seal
- Keeps contaminants from entering the sealing area
- Protects internal components
- Reduces maintenance while increasing productivity
Stainless Steel Sealing Band System
- Fatigue resistant stainless steel bands are specifically made to provide longer life and will not elongate, like elastomers
- Outer band keeps out contaminants for extended performance
- Inner band provides a smooth surface for less seal wear formed steel piston bracket
- Provides maximum strength at major stress points
- Heat treated carbon steel withstands the toughest dynamic forces
- Strongest bracket design in the industry assures long life with less maintenance
Patented Wedge Bearing System
- Bearing surfaces adjusted at the factory for optimum pre-load
- Bearing surfaces adjusted by and supported by a steel wedge assuring long term stability
Adjustable Cushions
- Adjustable cushions are standard, not optional
- Easy screw adjustment for end-of-stroke deceleration
- Protects actuator and load from damage
Load-Bearing Carrier Design
- Load and piston are independent - piston floats, resulting in less friction and longer seal life
- Recirculating ball bearing system guides and supports load for consistent long term performance
- Constant level of friction is maintained even when load orientation changes
