Smooth the way for intense material handling tasks with this pneumatic cylinder from Festo. It pushes with forces up to 294.5N at 6 bar pressure to keep large loads moving freely through your system. Thanks to its adjustable cushioning, the device adapts to suit its application, ensuring minimal disruption from vibrations. Damp work environments are no match for the corrosion-resistant aluminium alloy housing. As the cylinder connects using an M10x1.25 piston rod thread, hooking it up to standard machinery is a breeze.

• Slim 27mm diameter to fit into compact setups
• Supports both clean and lubricated air supplies for versatility
• Delivers strokes up to 320mm, for precision in larger-scale applications
• Works with a proximity sensor (such as 121-5837) to provide handy position monitoring
• Built-in NBR rings form an airtight seal so you maintain a stable system pressure

• Semiconductor manufacturing
• Recycling centres
• Automotive industry

A double-acting cylinder like this one has two inlets that let it take in air to push and pull the piston back and forth. By controlling the amount of air the device uses, you can directly measure out its strokes to achieve close process management.
