Ten million trouble-free cycles. Field repairable and factory lubricated for the rated life. This versitile and reliable pneumatic cylinder continues to perform long after it's lower-cost competition is piling up in the landfill.

In these tough times, we are all looking for ways to cut costs. But beware of the low-cost cylinder. It comes with a hefty price. When you add up your maintenance and lost production costs, throw in an increased scrap cost, and tally up the ordering & receiving manpower, a hundred dollars in up-front procurement price can cost you thousands of dollars in hidden costs over the long haul. And since you'll be producing additional good parts instead of the downtime, those hidden costs stack up even faster.

On the surface, those throw-away cylinders appear to be less expensive. But it's the hidden costs that will affect your "true" cost of ownership. Invest in reliable, quality products. It will pay back in the end.
