Magnetic Cylinders Overview

🆕MaxLyte Lightweight Magnetic Cylinder

Product Features

  • Designed for better durability. Steel based for better deflection, heat and rebuild
    capabilities versus competitive aluminum cylinders
  • 40+% Weight reduction and even lighter than aluminum type magnetic cylinders over
    200 tooth design
  • Lower shipping cost with the lighter weight, while reducing CO2 emissions in transport
    for a more sustainable alternative
  • Global Manufacturing - in Eureka, Missouri, USA; Aldridge, United Kingdom and
    Huzhou, China
  • Designed for extended life, MaxLyte can be refurbished for a longer tool life,
    minimizing waste and lowering cost vs aluminum options
  • Experience peace of mind and safer operations, knowing the lighter weight magnetic
    cylinder allows for easier movement around the factory and changing out of the
    components in the die station
