Re: Dual leveled cylinders
If you mean cylinders with intermediate positions (e.g. three-position cylinders), then no.

If you mean two-segment telescopic cylinders, then no.

In fact, if it's not a cylinder that meets <R89>, and is therefore identical (down to the part number) to a cylinder on the Free Pneumatic Components Order Form, it's not legal. There is one exception, because your team is located outside North America: you may ask FIRST for an exemption, by following the procedure in <R42>. They will only allow parts with the same function, but may permit slightly different dimensions, or different manufacturers.
