Festo
178462
Clamping unit KPE-4
The Festo 178462 is an industrial component featuring a tilting plate structural design with a single-end piston rod and no position sensing. Designed for any mounting position, it provides a static holding force of 80 N for a 4 mm round material using both-sides clamping that is spring-applied and pneumatically released between 0.3 MPa and 1 MPa. Constructed with an anodized aluminum housing, spring steel spring, and NBR and TPE-U seals, this 100 g unit operates within an ambient temperature range of -10 °C to 80 °C with a corrosion resistance class of 2.

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.
