| | | cushion | Explanation:

Pneumatic or hydraulic cylinders manufactured by Falcon Industries.
A cushion assembly for pneumatic and hydraulic cylinders is used to help the piston decelerate near the end of its stroke. This is recommended when the piston travels at a high rate of speed or is pushing a heavy load. Without the cushion assembly, the piston would make a sharp contact with the covers causing a great deal of shock between the piston and cylinder covers.
