Answered: Piston Mounting Hardware

[AndrewRemmers1902]

Hello,

I’m playing with the Dual Acting Cylinders and I am wondering if we can choose to mount them by the threaded end in the event that a team does not need to use a clevis? Simply putting it can we use a 5/16-18 Nut of any fashion or for Metric M8-1.25 is the equivalent thread.

This is not asking to allow 5/16-18 hardware in the leniency of 4-40, 6-32, and 8-32 but only simply asking if teams can use a 5/16-18 nut to mount their pistons easier.

Yes, for this specific case, this would be allowed.
