The F suffix is present in this product code. The catalog explains self-locking through the rocker arm of the K lever-roller structure; it does not show a corresponding locking mechanism for this round rod end. Select this unit by the stated rod-end geometry and do not assume the lever-roller locking mechanism is fitted to it.

Conveyor selection and loading
Select against the actual moving mass, impact speed, friction and lateral load. The impact-load graphs use conveyor speed in meters per minute; they are not cylinder-travel speed limits. The lateral-load graphs relate transverse load in newtons to operating air pressure. A curve that extends beyond a product’s operating range does not raise its permitted pressure.
The TWQ selection page has separate impact-load curves for the round / flat / roller heads and for the K lever-roller head. A K-head curve must not be used to rate a C, B or R head. The 20 and 25 mm TWQ sizes do not list a K-head configuration.
Series construction and materials
The source exploded view is a representative single-acting TTQ-K at bores 32–50 configuration. Spring, magnet, locking and hydraulic components apply only to the corresponding configuration; the entire parts list is not a statement that every option is supplied with this product.

Position sensing
This configuration is supplied without a magnet. Do not assume a magnetic sensor can detect the piston without the corresponding magnetic conversion parts.
Pneumatic circuit selection reference
The 2022 selection example for a 50 mm cylinder bore uses a theoretical speed of 500 mm/s and an effective flow area of 5.1 mm². It is a circuit-sizing example, not a guaranteed installed speed or a supplied package. Match the actual cylinder port, valve capacity and tubing. This product uses PT1/8; a reference accessory with a different thread is not a direct screw-in connection.

Installation and operating conditions
- Flush the piping before connection and use clean, conditioned compressed air with the filtration specified for this cylinder. Keep sealant clear of the first 1–2 thread turns.
- Align the actuator and load; provide protection from moving parts and unexpected motion after a loss or restoration of air or electrical power. Exhaust residual pressure before maintenance or removal.
- Start with the flow-control valve closed and open gradually to the required speed. Check cushioning against the actual speed, load and stopping energy; a closed-center valve does not guarantee prolonged load holding or precise intermediate stopping.
- Protect the sliding surfaces, prevent moisture from freezing and keep contaminants out of the ports. Protect stored equipment from corrosion. Follow the dedicated lubrication instructions; where continued lubrication is selected, the general catalog specifies additive-free ISO VG32 turbine oil.
Optional complete connection and control order codes
These separately ordered options supplement the retained circuit reference; they are not supplied as a complete connection kit. Confirm actual flow and stopping response before selection.

Cylinder connections use PC1001 at PT1/8; Install PSA10 inline. Select restricted valve-to-cylinder charging and free cylinder-to-valve exhaust. Valve P/A connections use PC1001 at PT1/8. Keep one powered line and the valve exhaust open for spring return.
3V106 is direct-acting NC 3/2: energized P→A retracts the rod; de-energized A→R allows the spring to extend it. Its 1.2 mm orifice is conditional on verified flow/response, not the retained 500 mm/s example. Blank entry is DIN; I is 0.5 m flying leads. AC tolerance ±15%, DC ±10%; 220/110 V AC 4.5 VA, 24 V AC 5 VA, 24 V DC 3 W, 12 V DC 2.5 W. Choose one version; the retained 5/2 reference does not establish a single-acting connection.
The selected branch is limited to 0.2–0.8 MPa and −20 to +70°C, subject to temperature derating and lower installed-component limits. The body remains rated 0.2–1.0 MPa. The original stopping-load, absorber recovery, self-lock and reference-speed limits still apply.
Use BSL01 at selected valve exhaust R (PT1/8), never at cylinder work ports. The original BSL02 has a different thread and is not a direct fit here. PSA10 requires exact 10 mm OD soft nylon/PU tube; rating 0–1 MPa, −20 to +70°C. Orient by the body flow symbol; no A/B order suffix. Closed adjustment is not safety isolation.
The blue 100 m rolls are packaging alternatives, not installed lengths. Both are rated 1 MPa at 23°C; US98A is −20 to +70°C and UE95A −40 to +70°C. Minimum bend radii are 25/20 mm respectively. Apply temperature derating and the common circuit limits.
Weight reference
1068 g estimated configuration reference. The catalog does not separately list every thread, internal-spring or self-lock option, so this value is not an independently measured weight of those options. The catalog states that actual product weight governs; packaging and shipping weight are excluded.
