SMC NCQ8B106-200M Pneumatic Cylinder

SMC NCQ8B106-200M is a compact, double-acting pneumatic cylinder from the NCQ8 family, designed for space‑constrained automation and close‑center mounting. It uses a 1 1/16 in bore (26.99 mm) and a 2 in stroke (50.8 mm), all enclosed in a square aluminum alloy body with through-hole mounting to simplify precise alignment and installation in tight work envelopes. The cylinder is a double-acting, single‑rod design, providing balanced push and pull strokes for reliable linear actuation in tasks such as pick-and-place, clamping, or tool‑actuated transfer on small assembly lines. Weighing around 1.0 lb, this model is built for standard compressed-air systems and is commonly offered in catalogs and by distributors under NCQ8B106-200M; the through-hole configuration (B) and aluminum cylinder tube are characteristic of the NCQ8 series, enabling straightforward mounting and compatibility with a range of end fittings. Maximum operating pressure is typically in the 200 psi class for NCQ8 cylinders, supporting moderate‑load applications while preserving a compact form factor that preserves workspace on crowded automation benches.
