Attaching a load

There are many ways of attaching a load to the RTC
cylinder slide. This section therefore only gives general
information and states which screw sizes can be used to
attach to the different types of cylinder.
Make sure that the load is properly attached for
the specific application and that the attachment
can handle the load for which the cylinder is
dimensioned. Observe the force and torque
specifications in the online product catalog.
Centering rings
Centering rings are available in various sizes. They can be
used for the versions RTC-CG, RTC-HD, CKP and CKP-CL.
See the online product catalog for more information.
