Bimba originated the unitized, non-repairable style of this cylinder, which has become an industry standard. Our `original line` cylinders have earned a reputation as hardworking, long-lasting performers.
Roundline Stainless Steel Body Cylinders
We have the broadest product line available, with more bore sizes, mounting styles and options than any other company. And, we continually add new variations such as the PC Cylinder with plastic end caps, and the non-rotating original line cylinder with its unique square piston rod. Types of cylinders include:
- Original Line Cylinders
- Small Bore Position Sensing Cylinder
- PC Cylinders
- PC Cylinder with Cushions
- Non-Rotating Cylinders (square rods)
- Multiple-Position Original Line Cylinder
- MRS Cylinders
- Z-Line Cylinders
- 500 Hydraulic Cylinders
- Hole Punchers

Small Bore Position Sensing Cylinder
- These magnetic position sensing cylinders are available in 5/16`` and 7/16`` bore sizes.
- Can be used with Bimba`s sinking and sourcing switches and miniature reed switch.
- Feature a low profile track on the cylinder body, a 40% profile height reduction compared to traditional track styles.
- Variety of stroke lengths, including many standard stroke lengths is offered.
NFPA Interchangeable Cylinders
Streamline your design with our tie-tube NFPA interchangeable cylinders. They take up less space and are easy to repair.

Space-Saving Cylinders- Aluminum-Extruded Body
This low-cost, low profile cylinder with an aluminum-extruded body is an excellent choice for space saving machine design. It`s also the latest addition to our extensive family of Flat-1® cylinders.
- EF1 Aluminum Extruded Body Cylinders (metric)
- Twin Bore Cylinder
Linear Thrusters
For smooth, guided motion, a durable housing with guide shafts keeps our linear thruster from rotating and allows it to carry higher loads. Choose from two different models.
Rodless Cylinders
Magnetically coupled design of Bimba`s rodless cylinders keeps out metal chips and other leak causing contaminants for longer cylinder life.
- Ultran® Rodless Cylinders (magnetically coupled)
- High Load Ultran® Cylinder
- Twin Bore Cylinder
Rotary Actuators
Our rack and pinion rotary actuators allow for almost unlimited rotation. They are lightweight and provide smooth operation.
- Pneu-Turn® Rotary Actuators (rack and pinion)
- Position Feedback Pneu-Turn Rotary Actuator
- Pneu-Turn Rotary Actuator with Magnetic Position Sensing
ISO Cylinders
Our ISO cylinders offer strict conformance to the world`s leading standards for dimensional interchangeability.
- ISO 6431 Cylinders
- ISO 6432 Cylinders
Electro Pneumatic Cylinders
Our position feedback actuators include an integral linear resistive transducer for continuous position sensing. They are designed for applications where magnetic position sensing is impractical, where variations in cylinder speed or stroke are needed, or where an operation requires constant monitoring of cylinder position.
- Position Feedback Cylinders
- Position Feedback Pneu-Turn Rotary Actuator
- Pneumatic Control System
- Digital Panel Meter
- Electronic Controller
Flow Controls
Bimba offers four types of meter-out controls to regulate the speed of your cylinder, plus one needle valve for controlled flow of both air intake and exhaust.
- Flow Controls (FCP Series, inch)
- Flow Controls (metric)Quik-Flo®
- Flow Controls (FQP Series, inch)
- Miniature Quik-Flo® Flow Controls (FQPS Series, inch)
- Needle Valve (QNV Series, inch)
Multi Axis Actuators
Several of our actuators have special features for use in multi-axis applications. Transition Plates can be used to couple Ultran® rodless cylinders, Pneu-Turn® rotary actuators, and linear thrusters into multi-axis configurations. And, our PneuMoment® electro pneumatic actuator for semiconductor, features an auxiliary port option that can be used to transmit air or vacuum through the actuator to the tooling plate for use with additional automation devices.
- PneuMoment® Pneumatic Actuator
- Ultran® Rodless Cylinders
- Pneu-Turn® Rotary Actuator
- Linear Thruster
- Transition Plates
