Festo Pneumatic Piston Rod Cylinder - 1376905, 40mm Bore, 50mm Stroke, DSBC Series, Double Acting

This double-acting cylinder from Festo is an essential component of industrial process control systems. It comprises a piston made of high-alloy steel for optimal performance and long service life. This piston is housed in a protective cover made of die-cast aluminium that's both durable and lightweight. It works by reacting to the pressure difference in its air port, which cause the piston to extend and retract as required. There are also mounting slots for proximity sensors that adjust its movement based on the specific job at hand.

• Polyphenylene sulphide (PPS) cushioning to reduce noise and vibration and increase service life
• Wide stroke length range for versatility in application
• High advancing force of 754N (newtons) at 6 bars of pressure for heavy-duty applications
• Thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) seals to prevent air leakage

• Process control systems
• Assembly lines
• Drinks production

Cushioning prevents damage to the cylinder head from the return force of the piston. It absorbs the shock that would result from the full inertia of the returning piston.
