What is the difference between CG1Q series low-friction cylinders and CG1Y-Z series smooth cylinders?

Old CG1□Q series cylinders had directional low-friction operation due to the seal shape, which required the indication of the direction in the part number. CG1Y-Z series smooth cylinders have bi-directional low-friction operation as standard.
The mounting dimensions of CG1Q and CG1Y-Z series products are the same.
Note) The CG1Q series was discontinued in September 2013 and was replaced with the current CG1Y-Z series.
