Can you provide a link or post the technical specs for the Vex single and double acting pistons?

**The only specs we have are posted on the detail page for the pneumatics. **

I guess I’m asking for the SMC part no. like you provided for the solenoids.

There are two quesions I’d like answered in particular.

What is the dead volume of the cylinder?

What if anything protects the cylinder from piston hammering damage?
I.E. should a catapult be externally stopped or allow the pistons to bottom?

Can you shed some light on these?

We have updated the detailed Pneumatics Page with SMC Part Numbers. You can now find the SMC Part Numbers listed in the Kit Contents for each Kit.
