Is it possible to retrofit mounting brackets (foot type, flange type, and double clevis type) to standard CQ2B/CDQ2B series cylinders?

They cannot be retrofitted for through-hole type cylinders (option “B” for CQ2B/CDQ2B). A mounting bracket can only be retrofitted for both ends tapped type cylinders (option “A” for CQ2A/CDQ2A). Note that as the length of the piston rod (rod length from the end face of the body) differs for the rod flange type (option “F”), the foot type (option “L”), and the compact foot type (option “LC”), changing to the both ends tapped type is not encouraged.
Note 1) Changing from the both ends tapped type (option “A”) to the head flange type (option “G”) or double clevis type (option “D”) is possible.
Note 2) For the long stroke type, the rod length is the same. Refer to the catalog for further details.
