Smc Pneumatics NCQ-D012 Double Clevis 1/2 Inch Bore

Product Description

The SMC PNEUMATICS NCQ-D012 is a double clevis mounting accessory designed for use with NCQ2 series air cylinders. It provides a pivoting connection point at the cylinder rod end or cap end, allowing the cylinder to articulate during actuation and accommodate off-axis loads. The NCQ-D012 is sized for 1/2 inch bore cylinders and is a standard component in pneumatic motion control assemblies. Maintenance technicians and automation integrators install this type of accessory when a fixed mount would introduce binding or side-load stress on the cylinder rod.

This double clevis is suited for industrial pneumatic applications where the cylinder must swing or pivot through its stroke. Typical installations include clamping fixtures, actuated gates, toggle linkages, and mechanical automation assemblies that require articulating cylinder mounts. It is designed specifically for NCQ2 series air cylinders with a 1/2 inch bore, making it a direct-fit accessory in those configurations.

Key Features

• Double clevis design allows pivoting motion at the mount point, reducing rod side-load during actuation
• Sized for 1/2 inch bore NCQ2 series air cylinders
• Provides rigid yet articulating attachment for use in linkage and clamping applications
• Direct-fit accessory for SMC PNEUMATICS NCQ2 cylinder series

Compatibility

Designed for use with SMC PNEUMATICS NCQ2 series air cylinders with a 1/2 inch bore.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a maintenance technician or pneumatic systems integrator. Depressurize and lock out the pneumatic circuit before removing or attaching any cylinder mounting hardware. Ensure the clevis pin and fasteners are properly torqued per the assembly drawing and that the pivot axis is aligned to allow free articulation without binding. Follow applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures when servicing pneumatic actuators.
