Stainless-steel bands make for durable rodless cylinder
Rodless MX cylinders from Tolomatic, Hamel, Minn., give users choices between three bearing technologies, each with a track record of long operational lives: THK caged ball for less friction, higher load and bending moments, and a longer life; solid field-replaceable bearings for up to 59% less stress; and internal bearings which are lubed for life and have the lowest breakaway pressures.
