Compact Cylinder (CQ2 series)
- Bore
- 12 to 100 mm (catalogue specification table)
- Operating pressure
- 0.05 to 1.0 MPa (0.07 MPa minimum for 12 and 16 mm)
- Piston speed
- 50 to 500 mm/s
- Proof pressure
- 1.5 MPa
Used for: Short-stroke clamping, pushing and stopping where space is tight.

Notes
- SMC states the CQ2 series can take small auto switches on 4 surfaces for bores of 32 mm and above (12 to 25 mm: 2 surfaces).
- SMC lists a wider compact cylinder range, from 4 mm to 200 mm bore, across the CQ2 family and related series.
