Festo Pneumatic Cylinder - 188082, 12mm Bore, 5mm Stroke, AEVC Series, Single Acting

This pneumatic cylinder from Festo converts energy from the air to linear force to push items in automated systems and machines. It's a single-acting cylinder, so only its piston extends from air pressure and retracts with the help of an inbuilt spring. This makes it simpler to operate and easier to maintain. This cylinder has compact dimensions of 22mm in height, 20mm width and 17mm depth, making it ideal for installation in confined spaces. You can use it in applications that call for short piston strokes.

• Polymer end cushioning to reduce noise and vibration
• Extend force of 59N (newtons) at 7 bar for heavy-duty applications
• Piston made of an anodised aluminium material that withstands rust and oxidation
• Broad temperature range of -20°C to +80°C for use in extreme conditions

• Construction industry
• Manufacturing
• Chemical applications

Yes, this single-acting cylinder is safe to use. This is because the piston always returns to its original position via its spring after extending. This is critical in situations where power failure may cut the air supply to the component.
