Pneumatic fluid power - Cylinders, 1 000 kPa (10 bar) series - Mounting dimensions of rod-end clevises

This document specifies the mounting dimensions required for interchangeability of rod-end clevises of pneumatic cylinders. The rod-end clevises have been designed specifically for use with 1 000 kPa [10 bar1] series cylinders manufactured in accordance with ISO 6432 and ISO 15552, but this does not limit their application.

The clevises are used on piston rods of pneumatic cylinders for mechanically transmitting the cylinder force. The design of the clevises is based on the maximum forces resulting from the specified internal diameter of the cylinders and pressure according to ISO 6432, ISO 15552 and ISO 21287.

1 1 bar = 100 kPa = 105 Pa; 1 Pa = 1 N/m2.

To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.
