PHD Inc. AVTR Series Pneumatic Cylinder AVTR 1 3/8 x 2 -U

The PHD Inc. AVTR Series Pneumatic Cylinder is a compact, heavy-duty actuator designed for reliable linear motion in industrial automation and manufacturing environments. Featuring a bore size of 1-3/8 inches and a 2-inch stroke, this double-acting cylinder is ideal for applications such as clamping, positioning, material handling, and assembly operations where space is limited. The -U option typically indicates urethane bumpers for shock absorption, enhancing durability and reducing noise during operation. Constructed with high-quality aluminum and stainless steel components, it offers excellent corrosion resistance and a long service life, often exceeding 10 million cycles under proper conditions. Advantages over similar products include NFPA interchangeability for easy replacement, customizable options, and superior sealing for minimal leakage. Benefits include precise control, high force output relative to size (up to approximately 150 lbs at 100 psi), and low maintenance requirements. Drawbacks may include the need for a compressed air supply and potential sensitivity to contaminants if not filtered properly. Based on attached images, this unit appears used with minor rust on fittings, but the body is intact, suggesting good operational condition after inspection. It excels in automated machinery, robotics, and packaging lines, providing cost-effective performance compared to bulkier hydraulic alternatives.
