Festo Pneumatic Guided Cylinder, Non-Corrosive Piston Rod, 2 to 10 Bar Operating Pressure Range - DFM-12-40-P-A-GF Set your machine moving in a linear direction with this pneumatic guided cylinder from Festo. It has a double-acting function, which means there's an open port at each end to let air in and out. This pushes the piston rod back and forth, eliminating the need for a spring-return mechanism and boosting accuracy. The high-alloy steel construction of the rod delivers protection from corrosion in harsh settings. You can use this handy cylinder for clamping, stopping and lifting tasks in your pneumatic system.
