Festo
162972
Flat cylinder DZF-1/2"- -A-P-A
The Festo 162972 is a double-acting industrial component featuring a 1/2" equivalent piston diameter, an oval piston providing an anti-torsion guide, and a piston rod with a 10-32 UNF-2A thread. This unit operates within a pressure range of 1.6 bar to 10 bar using compressed air conforming to ISO 8573-1:2010 [7:4:4], with oil lubrication permitted and required for subsequent operation. It incorporates elastic cushioning rings at both ends, accommodates any mounting position, and offers stroke lengths from 0.04 in to 8 in while achieving position sensing via a proximity switch.

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.
