IMI Norgren A Series - NFPA Aluminum Cylinders with Norgren's Ecology Seal:

IMI Norgren's A series NFPA Cylinders are constructed with the finest materials. The piston rods are made of hard chrome plated high-tensile steel, ground and polished. The piston is machined aluminum alloy for low inertia, and is installed with high strength threadlocker adhesive and then staked the piston rod. The lip-type wiper seal is made of urethane and aggressively wipes foreign materials from the piston rod enhancing the life of the cylinder. The piston seals are made of long wearing nitrile, and the wear rings are made of reinforced Teflon compounded with polyphenylene sulfide to allow supreme wear and excellent bearing support. The cylinder tubes are made from a clear anodized high strength aluminum alloy and are hard anodic coated on the inside to provide a smooth, corrosion and scorch resistant finish.

The Ultra Cushion Seals are made from an advanced design, which features a nitrile seal within a precision-machined groove, and eliminate misalignment and provide exceptionally fast stroke reversal. An adjustable captive cushion needle provides safe and precise cushion adjustment. High strength steel tie rods maintain uniform compression on tube end seals. The Ecology Seal is designed to work in conjunction with standard air cushion technology, and contributes up to 80% of the deceleration required at the end of stroke.
