Our thin cylinders (also known as compact cylinders) are specifically designed for applications where axial installation space is at a premium. By optimizing the internal structure, they significantly reduce body length while maintaining reliable performance, offering you more flexible and compact automation solutions.
Compared to standard cylinders of the same bore and stroke, thin cylinders have a drastically reduced body length, ideal for tight installation spaces.
Compact structure and optimized materials make thin cylinders lighter, contributing to overall equipment weight reduction and lower energy consumption.
Offer various mounting methods, such as direct body threading or end cap mounting, for easy integration into diverse equipment structures.
Thin cylinders achieve their minimal overall length by optimizing the internal piston, seals, and end cap design, all while ensuring necessary output force. They typically feature a flat or square body profile.
Innovative piston and seal designs minimize non-working length, achieving ultimate compactness.
Utilizing high-strength aluminum alloys and other lightweight materials to reduce cylinder self-weight while ensuring strength, aiding overall equipment weight reduction.
Offering various mounting options like body threads, end cap through-holes, and side mounting holes for easy integration into different equipment.
Even with a compact structure, high-quality seals are used to ensure cylinder airtightness and durability.
e.g., Ø12, Ø16, Ø20, Ø25, Ø32, Ø40, Ø50, Ø63, Ø80, Ø100 mm.
Typically shorter standard strokes, e.g., 5mm to 100mm; longer strokes customizable for some models.
Common range: 0.1~1.0 MPa.
Double-acting is mainstream; single-acting (spring return/extend) available for smaller bores.
Some thin cylinder series integrate guide rods for enhanced side-load resistance.
Body threads, through-holes, end cap threads, side mounting, etc.
M5, G1/8, G1/4, etc., matched to bore size.
Optional for position sensing with magnetic switches.

Correct installation and proper maintenance are key to ensuring the long-term, stable, and efficient operation of thin cylinders.
The core advantage of thin cylinders (compact cylinders) is their reduced axial dimension. The exact amount of saved installation length depends on the specific bore size, stroke, and the type of standard cylinder being compared. Generally, for the same bore and stroke, a thin cylinder’s overall length can be 30% to 60% shorter, or even more, than standard cylinders like ISO 15552.
For example, a Ø32 standard cylinder with a 50mm stroke might have a total length of around 180mm, while a thin cylinder with the same bore and stroke might only be 80-100mm long. This difference is critical in space-constrained applications.
Under the same bore size and operating pressure, the theoretical output force of a thin cylinder is essentially the same as that of a standard cylinder. This is because output force primarily depends on the effective piston area and operating pressure (F = P × A).
The “thinness” of a thin cylinder mainly refers to the reduction in body length, not a decrease in piston diameter. Of course, minor structural design differences, such as in the piston or seals, might lead to very small variations in force loss, but these are negligible in most applications. When selecting, you should still primarily calculate or refer to theoretical output force based on bore size and pressure.
Standard thin cylinders (without additional guiding devices) are primarily designed to save axial space. Their piston rod guide length is relatively short, so their ability to withstand side loads or moments is generally weaker than standard cylinders with longer guide bushings or specially designed guided cylinders/slide cylinders.
If your application involves significant side loads:
Directly subjecting a non-guided thin cylinder to excessive side loads can easily lead to uneven piston rod wear, seal damage, and a shortened lifespan.
Due to their compact structure, thin cylinders offer several flexible mounting options to suit different equipment designs:
The specific mounting methods depend on the particular series and model of the thin cylinder you choose. Please refer to the respective product catalog for detailed mounting dimensions and instructions.
Thin cylinders are designed to save space in short-stroke applications, so their standard strokes are usually not very long. Common standard strokes might start from 5mm or 10mm, up to 50mm, 80mm, with some series possibly reaching 100mm or slightly longer.
Regarding long-stroke customization:
If your application truly requires a longer stroke while still needing to save installation length, consider these options:
Please inform us of your specific stroke and load requirements, and our technical team can help evaluate the best solution for you.
