Festo
156506
Compact cylinder ADVU-12-40-P-A
The Festo 156506 is a double-acting industrial component featuring a 12 mm piston diameter, a 40 mm stroke, and an internal M3 piston rod thread at one end. Designed for operation with compressed air conforming to ISO 8573-1:2010 [7:4:4] within an operating pressure range of 1.2 bar to 10 bar, this unit incorporates elastic cushioning rings at both ends and enables position sensing via a proximity switch. It delivers a theoretical advancing force of 68 N and retracting force of 51 N at 6 bar, operating within an ambient temperature range of -20 °C to 80 °C.

Request a QuoteWhy no listed price?
Industrial and obsolete parts are priced per enquiry: the final price depends on available stock, condition, quantity, and your delivery destination, so a fixed list price would be misleading. Request a quote and we confirm current pricing, lead time, and sourcing options — including hard-to-find and discontinued Festo references — within one business day.
