Velvac 100123 air cylinder 2 1/2 in bore 6 in stroke double acting aluminium
Double-acting aluminium air cylinder with 2 1/2 in bore, 6 in stroke, 120 psi maximum pressure and 185 °F temperature rating
- Double-acting design delivers force in both directions
- Aluminium body resists corrosion and reduces weight
- 2 1/2 in bore provides strong push force
- 6 in stroke covers long travel needs
- Magnetic piston enables position sensing
- Clevis mount simplifies pivot installation
Purpose and fit
The Velvac 100123 is a double-acting air cylinder with a 2 1/2 in bore and 6 in stroke built for linear motion in pneumatic systems. Its aluminium body and clevis mounting suit machinery that needs push and pull force from a single component. Buyers who need a repairable cylinder or a different mounting style should look elsewhere.
Thermals, noise and power draw
The cylinder operates up to 120 psi and 185 Degrees F without internal cushions, so cycle speed and end-of-stroke impact depend on external flow controls. Aluminium construction helps dissipate heat during repeated cycles. No electrical power is consumed by the cylinder itself.
Deciding specification
The 1/4 in female NPT inlet sets the plumbing connection for this cylinder. Verify that your air preparation and valve ports match this thread size and gender before ordering.

Questions about this item
How do I mount the Velvac 100123 cylinder using its clevis brackets?
Align the clevis pins with the mounting holes, insert the pins and secure both retaining clips. The step often missed is checking pin orientation so the cylinder cannot rotate under load.
Since the cylinder is non-repairable, when should I plan to replace it?
Replace the unit if the magnetic piston stops triggering position sensors, if air leaks appear at the rod seal, or if the aluminium body shows corrosion or impact damage.
What pressure and temperature ceiling limits continuous operation?
Do not exceed 120 psi supply pressure or 185 °F ambient temperature; sustained operation beyond either limit accelerates seal wear and can deform the aluminium barrel.
