Theoretical Cylindrical Forces
To determine the estimated force generated by the QC cylinder on extend or retract, use the appropriate power factor below and
multiply it to the input working pressure to cylinder. Forces generated by 3C cylinders are found on page 222.
Force (kg or lb) = Power Factor X Pressure (bar or PSI)
