Festo Pneumatic Compact Cylinder - 577213, 20mm Bore, 40mm Stroke, ADNGF Series, Double Acting

Keep machinery on the straight and narrow with this pneumatic compact cylinder from Festo. As compressed air enters the port, it pushes the piston rod in a linear direction. Built-in guide rods and a yoke plate keep things steady and prevent the cylinder from rotating. You'll find this is a tough and dependable workmate, as impacts and corrosion are no match for the piston's high alloy steel material. A wide operating temperature range between -20°C and +80°C indicates this unit can take the heat in demanding operations.

• Anodised wrought aluminium alloy cylinder barrel is resistant to mechanical wear
• Lubricated operation possible to help minimise friction
• End-position cushioning is self-adjusting for hassle-free operation
• Can accommodate a proximity sensor to track piston position
• TPE-U (PUR) seals offer resistance to chemicals and solvents

• Printing presses
• Wastewater facilities
• Chemical plants
• Manufacturing industry
• Conveyor belts

A double-acting cylinder like this one has an opening at each end for the compressed air to flow in and out. This pushes the piston rod back and forth, boosting efficiency and eliminating the need for an internal spring reset mechanism.
