| MADE IN THE USA |
For more than 25 years, Nason has been the cylinder manufacturer engineers turn to when space is tight and performance can’t be compromised. Our pneumatic and hydraulic cylinders—all made in the USA—deliver consistent force, tight tolerances, and long service life. Whether you need an off-the-shelf model or a fully custom build, we have the design flexibility to meet your exact specifications.
Our industrial cylinders thrive in harsh, high-duty environments where lesser components fail. Choose from a wide range of bore sizes, mounting styles, strokes, and materials—or collaborate with our in-house engineers on a purpose-built solution.
Nason cylinders concentrate full-size force into footprints small enough for crowded equipment, thanks to optimized piston geometry and bearing spacing. This lets engineers reclaim valuable machine real estate without sacrificing stroke length or structural rigidity.
Choose from an extensive catalog of bore diameters, strokes, mounts, and port positions—or let us quickly assemble a custom combination by mixing modular, pre-engineered components. You get near-limitless flexibility without long lead times.
Every cylinder meets tight tolerances verified by stringent QC, keeping friction low and motion smooth. That precision safeguards seal integrity and repeatability over millions of cycles.
Engineered, machined, and assembled at our South Carolina headquarters, Nason cylinders benefit from strict domestic quality control and rapid turnaround times. U.S. production also simplifies compliance with Buy American and mitigates overseas supply-chain and tariff risks.
Thick-walled steel or aluminum housings and caps, chrome-plated stainless steel or electroless nickel rods, self-lubricating bronze bearings, and hardened 302 stainless steel retaining wires are used for assembly. The result is a longer service life that lowers total cost of ownership in high-cycle environments.

Designed for pressures up to 3,000 psi, Nason hydraulic cylinders supply high force in a compact envelope ideal for clamping, pressing, and forming applications. Heavy-wall steel or stainless barrels, precision-ground rods, and honed bores provide reliable performance shift after shift. Optional cushions, position sensors, and custom mounts let you drop them straight into equipment without extra machining.
Lightweight yet durable, our pneumatic cylinders are the go-to choice for high-speed pick-and-place, packaging, and material-handling stations. Low-friction seals ensure smooth actuation at pressures as low as 20 psi, while anodized aluminum bodies resist corrosion in wash-down or clean-room settings. Multiple port locations, magnetic piston options, and various mount styles simplify integration with existing machinery.
Complete your motion system with rod clevises, pivot mounts, feedback sensors, flow controls, and repair kits engineered specifically for Nason cylinders. Using genuine accessories preserves warranty coverage, maximizes uptime, and guarantees the fit you need for rapid installation or field service.
Our easy-to-use online configurator lets you design the perfect cylinder for your application. Choose the features you need and generate a model number and CAD file instantly.
