LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE

All Tolomatic MX Band Cylinders are prelubricated at the factory. To ensure 

maximum cylinder life, the following guidelines should be followed.

1. Filtration

 

We recommend the use of dry, filtered air in our products. “Filtered 

air” means a level of 10 Micron or less. “Dry” means air should be 

free of appreciable amounts of moisture. Regular maintenance of 

installed filters will generally keep excess moisture in check.

2  External Lubricators (optional)

 

The factory prelubrication of Tolomatic Band Cylinders will provide 

optimal performance without the use of external lubrication. However, 

external lubricators can further extend service life of pneumatic 

actuators if the supply is kept constant. 

 

Oil lubricators, (mist or drop) should supply a minimum of 1 drop per 

20 standard cubic feet per minute to the cylinder. As a rule of thumb, 

double that rate if water in the system is suspected. Demanding con-

ditions may require more lubricant. 

 

If lubricators are used, we recommend a non-detergent, 20cP @ 

140˚F 10-weight lubricant. Optimum conditions for standard cylinder 

operation is +32˚ to +150˚F (+0˚ to 65.5˚C).

 

 NOTE:

 Use of external lubricators may wash away the factory installed 

lubrication. External lubricants must be maintained in a constant sup-

ply or the results will be a dry actuator prone to premature wear.

3.  Sanitary Environments

 

Oil mist lubricators must dispense “Food Grade” lubricants to the air 

supply. Use fluids with ORAL LD50 toxicity ratings of 35 or higher 

such as Multitherm

®

 PG-1 or equivalent. Demanding conditions can 

require a review of the application.

4.  Cushion Adjustment

 

Adjust the Cushion Needles in the Cylinder Heads carefully to obtain 

optimum deceleration for your particular application. If there are 

questions on proper adjustment, please consult Tolomatic.
