Non-rotating rod
A standard round rod can turn in its bearing, which is fine for pushing but not for carrying a tool, a gripper or a sensor that has to stay pointed the same way. The K version uses a profiled rod that cannot rotate, so whatever is mounted on the end keeps its orientation through the whole stroke without an external guide.
Double rod and free mounting
With a rod at both ends the piston stays square under an off-centre load, and the second rod gives a place to mount a stop or a sensor dog. The free mount body carries tapped holes on several faces, so it bolts straight onto whatever surface the machine offers — on a retrofit into an existing frame that often decides whether the cylinder fits at all.
Typical use
Small tool and gripper actuation, indexing pins, and any short move where the end fitting must not twist.
Ordering
