  1. *1Constraints associated with the allowable kinetic energy are imposed on the speeds at which the piston can be locked. The maximum speed of 750 mm/s can be accommodated if the piston is to be locked in the stationary state for the purpose of drop prevention.
  2. *2When the cylinder is retracted (initial value), with no load or without deflection of the guide rod, the non-rotating accuracy shall be the value in the table or less.
  3. *3For bore size 20 and 25, M5 × 0.8 only is available.
