Drive your machine components backwards and forwards using this pneumatic cylinder from Festo. Consisting of a piston rod housed in a barrel, it uses the force of compressed air to create linear motion. A double-acting design means it has two open ports that let air in and out to control the rod back and forth, removing the need for a spring-return mechanism. As this unit has M5 pneumatic and port connections, you'll find it a breeze to attach it to your existing setup without specialist tools.

• NBR seals stop oils and solvents getting in, ensuring a long service life
• Rugged high-alloy steel piston rod and barrel resist impacts and corrosion, so it's a durable choice
• Broad operating pressure range between 1 and 10 bar for safe use in low-pressure environments
• Tough wrought aluminium cover provides resistance to mechanical wear

• Food production and packaging
• Chemical plants
• Transport industry
• Construction equipment

This cylinder has flexible cushioning rings and plates at both ends that absorb impact from the piston, keeping it from wearing out.
