Re: is this legal?

The short answer is, no.

Per R92:
Pneumatic components... ...can not be modified except as follows:
- Removing the pin from the rear of an air cylinder is allowed as long as the cylinder inself is not modified.
Do not, for example, file, machine, or abrasively remove any part of an air cylinder.

(I am assuming that you want to use the cylinder as a pneumatic component.) Is there another way that you're looking to mount the cylinder? I can't think of an advantage cutting off the mounting end would have... Maybe we can help you to determine a better/legal way to mount the cylinder?
