# DURATRK™ Rodless Cylinders: Solving Common Challenges

[W.C. Branham](https://blog.wcbranham.com/author/w-c-branham) 02/20/2025 [Pneumatic Actuators](https://blog.wcbranham.com/topic/pneumatic-actuators)

![DURATRK™ Rodless Cylinders: Solving Common Challenges](https://blog.wcbranham.com/hubfs/Blog%20Images/Untitled%20design%20(7).webp "DURATRK™ Rodless Cylinders: Solving Common Challenges")

Powerful and precise, rodless pneumatic cylinders are changing industrial automation. A rodless pneumatic cylinder delivers precise load movement along an axis, offering guidance and support. These flexible components use air power, making them an efficient and often preferred choice over hydraulic systems for many industrial applications.

[DURATRK™ rodless cylinders](https://www.wcbranham.com/actuators-pneumatic/duratrk-rodless-band-cylinders) have a lightweight yet sturdy extruded body and a hook-and-lock seal, delivering virtually zero leakage through the tube slot. They have great flexibility and come in six bore sizes from 18mm to 63mm. A wide range of industrial applications can use them with custom tube profiles reaching up to 20 feet.

<iframe width="256" height="144.64" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/28VcFb6C_9w?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen title="Rodless Cylinder Options: An Overview of Our DURATRK Rodless Cylinder Line" style="position: absolute; top: 0px; left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 100%; border: none;"></iframe>

## Space-Saving Design and Configuration Options

A key advantage of a rodless pneumatic cylinder is its space-efficient design. DURATRK's design can save 40 percent of space while achieving the same length, while customary rod cylinders need more space for rod extension. Both versions of the line are available. In a shorter length, a compact version has the identical stroke as the standard industry length.

Customers have several options when customizing their cylinders for maximum load capacity. This includes: bottom-mounted carriages, dual-side carriages, and integrated precision linear rails. Port configuration is flexible. Whether you need single-end or double-end porting NPT or BSPP, the DURATRK offers it. 

## Applications Across Industries

DURATRK™ rodless cylinders excel in many different industrial applications, demonstrating their versatility and reliability. The precision control and robust design make them ideal for both light-duty and heavy-duty operations.

Common applications include:

- Lane diverters on conveyor systems
- Automated spray head movement for painting and coating
- Precision silkscreening operations
- Assembly pick-and-place operations
- Elevator and door automation systems
- Roll forming and cart shuttling operations

These cylinders prove particularly valuable in environments where space efficiency meets demanding performance requirements. The precision control capabilities make them ideal for specialized tasks like automated gluing operations and CNC machine integration, while their durability ensures consistent performance in high-cycle applications.

## Enhanced Performance Features

The DURATRK™ line stands out with its modular design approach, offering exceptional flexibility for demanding applications. At its core, the system features:

- Standard carrier with [optional external guides](https://blog.wcbranham.com/install-an-external-guide) (up to 70% more loading support)
- [DTFL model](https://www.wcbranham.com/actuators-pneumatic/duratrk-rodless-band-cylinders/dtfl-series)with an integrated linear rail system
- Adjustable internal cushions
- Critical main seal with hook and lock function

Each cylinder includes adjustable internal cushions. The DTFL model is ideal for applications needing a higher load capacity without increasing cylinder size. Its integrated linear rail provides support for offset loads and demanding torque moments. 

The critical main seal's hook and lock function ensures reliable operation, while the lightweight extruded body maintains structural integrity even under pressure. These features combine to create a system that delivers consistent performance with minimal maintenance requirements.

## Custom Solutions and Support

W.C. Branham's engineering team specializes in creating custom solutions for unique applications. Through collaboration with Lanamatic, a Swiss manufacturer, they've developed specialized versions like the [DTK model](https://www.wcbranham.com/actuators-pneumatic/duratrk-rodless-band-cylinders/dtk-series) for compact applications, demonstrating their commitment to meeting specific customer needs.

The company's expert engineering and manufacturing teams leverage their extensive experience and creative problem-solving abilities to design ideal solutions for motion-based challenges. With industry-leading lead times of just one week compared to the typical 7-8 weeks from other manufacturers, [DURATRK™ cylinders](https://www.wcbranham.com/actuators-pneumatic/duratrk-rodless-band-cylinders) offer both customization flexibility and rapid availability for time-sensitive projects.
