Want to move a heavy item that's attached laterally to your equipment? Let this pneumatic guided cylinder from Festo lead it in the right direction. The unit features integrated guide blocks that lend a steady hand to the object as it moves sideways, distributing the force to keep it from falling off. As this unit's double acting, it comes with two open ports that let air flow in and out, driving the piston rod back and forth. You'll find it handy for clamping, stopping and lifting heavy loads in your system.

• Flexible cushioning rings on both ends help reduce noise
• Operating speed of 0.8m/s for swift load movement
• Tough stainless steel piston rod resists corrosion
• NBR seals help prevent air leakage to boost efficiency

• Construction equipment
• Printing presses
• Marine engineering
• Manufacturing industry

Yes, you can lubricate this cylinder to minimise friction. It's important to note that, if you lubricate it once, you'll need to keep lubricating it from then on.

This cylinder is designed to fit in any position in your machinery so you have flexibility when deciding how to set it up.
