161231

Flat cylinder DZF-12-160-A-P-A

The Festo 161231 is a double-acting industrial component featuring a 12 mm equivalent piston diameter, a 160 mm stroke, and an M6 piston rod thread with a single-end rod design and an oval piston for torsion protection. Operating on compressed air within a 1.6 to 10 bar pressure range and a -20 °C to 80 °C ambient temperature span, this unit incorporates elastic cushioning rings at both ends and position sensing via proximity switch. It delivers a theoretical retracting force of 51 N at 6 bar, a maximum rotation angle of plus or minus 2.5 degrees, and achieves moderate corrosion resistance under CRC 2 conditions.

Why 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.

Engineering context

Identification and RFQ Guidance

Confirm the exact configuration

Use the manufacturer part number and model code—not appearance alone. Connection, size, material, voltage, pressure, seal, and control options can differ within the same product family.

What to include in your RFQ

Provide quantity, delivery country and ZIP/postal code, required condition, target date, and photographs of the existing nameplate when available.
