TRD’s TA series standard cylinders offer a high quality, heavy duty construction in an NFPA tie rod style interchangeable design. These actuators are recognized for their durability and long-lasting performance.

FLOATING ROD BUSHING

• Precision machined from 150,000 PSI rated graphite-filled cast iron and PTFE coated to reduce friction and extend cycle life
• Bushing design traps lubrication in effective bearing area

HEAD, CAP & RETAINER

• Precision machined from high strength 6061-T6 aluminum alloy
• Black anodized for corrosion resistance

CYLINDER TUBE

• Precision machined from 6063-T6832 high tensile aluminum alloy
• Hard coat to 60 Rc for wear resistance and extended cycle life

PISTON ROD

• Precision machined from high yield, polished and hard chrome plated steel

PISTON & ROD SEALS

• Heavy lip design Carboxilated Nitrile construction
• Seals are pressure activated and wear-compensating for long life (self-lubricating material)

ROD WIPER

• Abrasion resistant urethane provides aggressive wiping action in all environments
• External lip design prevents debris from entering cylinder

PISTON

• Precision machined from 6061-T651 alloy aluminum, provides an excellent bearing surface for extended cylinder life

TIE RODS

• Pre-stressed high carbon steel tie rod construction eliminates axial loading of cylinder tube and maintains compression on tube and end seals

PERMANENT LUBRICATION

• Permanently lubricated with Magnalube-G PTFE based grease on all internal components
• This is a non-migratory type high performance grease providing outstanding service life
• No additional lubrication is required

CUSHIONS

• Options H & C - floating cushion seal designed for maximum cushion performance, quick return stroke break-away and extended life

CUSHION ADJUSTMENT NEEDLE

• Adjustable steel needle design has fine thread metering and is positively captured to prevent needle ejection during adjustment

PISTON WEAR BAND

• 90% Virgin PTFE and 10% Polyphenylene Sulfide-filled wear band
• extremely low wear rate

PISTON MAGNET

• Option MPR - for TRD magnetically operated reed and solid state switches
