Air Cylinder Pivot Mounts


Air Cylinder Pivot Mounts

Frequently an air cylinder must be able to rotate through a curved path or a PIVOT. The strongest pivot mount is a TRUNNION mount. It compensates for misalignment in one plane by using two robust pivot points. A CLEVIS has one pivot point and may be either fixed or removable and is typically attached to the cap end of the air cylinder.
