Nason space-saving components
Small Pneumatic and Hydraulic Cylinders
When it comes to cylinders, efficiency matters. Even though our compact linear actuators take up less space than competitors' products, they deliver the same power as larger competitive products. This allows you to downsize without compromising power capacity.
Nason’s custom-drilled cylinders are precision-manufactured in the USA from durable aluminum or stainless steel, for greater flexibility, better performance, and longer seal & cylinder life.
Hydraulic Cylinders
Nason’s compact, heavy-duty hydraulic cylinders transfer force through uncompressible hydraulic fluid to move pistons in a desired direction.
Pneumatic Air Cylinders
Nason’s pneumatic cylinders are compact air cylinders that convert the potential energy of compressed gas to linear mechanical energy.
Accessories
From custom engraving and limit sensors to alignment couplers and shock pads, Nason has the cylinder accessories needed for your specific application.
Pneumatic, Temperature & Pressure Switches
Unlike competitors’ switches, that "creep" between on and off, Nason pressure switches, pneumatic switches, and temperature switches are built for reliable positioning. Made in the USA, these compact and customizable switches feature a snap-action device, which makes their design more precise and repeatable. Their elastomer diaphragms or pistons move a precise 0.040 of an inch to ensure accurate, instantaneous contact under all operating conditions.
Nason's pneumatic, temperature and pressure switches are UL, CSA, and military approved with an operational life of over one million cycles and a large variety of electrical connections. Need a switch with specs you don’t see? Just ask us. We’ll be happy to custom build it for you.Vacuum Switches
With factory preset or field adjustable versions, vacuum models range from 1" to 29" Hg. These switches are 100% tested for accuracy and are available as NEMA 4 and 13.
Temperature Switches
Nason temperature switches are available in a wide range of configurations with models in snap disc or bellows design for high reliability with shock and vibration, or as a bi-metal immersion temperature switch for low voltage/low current applications.
Electrical Options
Nason offers a wide variety of electrical connection options for switches, including male and female sealed, military connectors, male and female conduit, quick connect and more.
Pressure, Vacuum, and Temperature Transducers
Unlike switches, which are either on or off, pressure, vacuum and temperature transducers provide a continuous output range as they convert measurements into various outputs.
Nason's compact transducers range from basic temperature transducers to highly customized wireless pressure transducers. Hydraulic and pneumatic designs with accuracy ranges of 1%, 0.4% " 0.25% and 0.15% and vacuum ranges up to 10,000 PSI serve a variety of industrial applications.
