C(D)Q2 Standard, double-acting
Compact Cylinder C(D)Q2
The SMC C(D)Q2 series in the standard version comprises double-acting compact cylinders with a single piston rod. The short overall length combined with full stroke output makes it one of the most widely used actuator designs in pneumatics.
With more than 7,600 items, this category covers a wide range of bore sizes and stroke lengths. According to the product data, many variants are also suitable for low-pressure hydraulics; the letters A and B in the ordering code denote different mounting types.
Double-acting compact cylinders of the C(D)Q2 series are used wherever defined push and pull motion is required within a shallow installation depth, for example in fixtures, clamping and gripping tasks, handling technology and general machine building. The double-acting design produces force in both directions of motion.
