Festo DFM Series Pneumatic Guided Cylinder, Double Acting, 12mm Bore, 40mm Stroke, 10 bar, Wrought DFM-12-40-P-A-KF

Festo DFM-12-40-P-A-KF Pneumatic Guided Cylinder features a double acting mechanism with a 12mm bore and 40mm stroke, enabling reliable and precise control in industrial applications. The cylinder is engineered to withstand high torque and lateral forces, thanks to its sturdy wrought aluminium alloy construction and integrated slide bearing system.

The DFM series is known for its recirculating ball bearings, which ensure smooth operation when torque loads are prevalent, making it especially suitable for applications such as clamping, stopping, material handling and lifting tasks. The compact design incorporates the piston rod as part of the guide body, further boosting structural rigidity and operational accuracy.

Designed for double acting pneumatic operation, providing responsive actuation. 12mm bore with 40mm stroke supports accurate, high-load movement. Constructed from wrought aluminium alloy for superior durability and resistance.

Guide rods with slide bearings provide high resilience to torque and external lateral forces. Operates at maximum pressure up to 10 bar, compatible with demanding environments. Flexible elastomer cushioning reduces operational noise and extends cylinder life.

Air supply ports positioned on both the top and side allow for versatile mounting options. Maintenance-free build ensures reliable long-term industrial performance. Height: 28mm, Width: 60mm, Length: 95mm, Weight: 466g. Meets Cleanroom Class 6 and RoHS standards (VDMA24364-B1/B2-L).

The Festo DFM Cylinder is ideal for manufacturing, automation, and material handling industries, and commonly used for clamping, stopping, and lifting loads reliably and safely. Integrated slots facilitate mounting of proximity sensors to measure piston position. Its application versatility makes it an excellent choice for environments demanding robust, maintenance-free pneumatic solutions.

Common use cases include clamping components for additional processing, lifting loads dynamically, and stopping objects weighing up to 150kg with resilience. Its elastomer cushioning also contributes to quieter operation, enhancing operator comfort in industrial workplaces.
