Go to Post Maybe next season I want to develop and test a new metric for FRC scouting: Bumper Quality Rating (BQR). BQR-5: The platonic ideal of FRC bumpers. ... BQR-0: Moderate to heavy use of duct tape. I believe BQR would outperform OPR as a predictor of on-field robot performance. - Nate Laverdure [more]

Bigger Pneumatic cylinders needed??

our team is looking for bigger two way pneumatic cylinders. AndyMarks is limited on their size and length of travel.
Anyone have a good place where they got theirs? Thanks for your time and help

McMaster-Carr isn't limited to one source and has multiple vendors.

Just make sure a big pneumatic cylinder is what you want and calculate your air consumption wisely, otherwise you may not be able to support the design.

McMaster Carr has some (no-free voucher though): http://www.mcmaster.com/#pneumatic-cylinders/=q8xnhn

And here is Bimba's site: http://www.bimba.com/

Good luck with your season.
