178463

Clamping unit KPE-6

The Festo 178463 is an industrial component featuring a tilting plate structural design with a single-end piston rod and a 6 mm round material clamping capability. It utilizes a spring-clamped, compressed-air-released mechanism on both sides to provide a static holding force of 180 N for holding and stopping movement. Constructed with an anodized aluminum housing, spring steel spring, and NBR and TPE-U seals, this unit operates within a pressure range of 0.3 MPa to 1 MPa and an ambient temperature range of -10 °C to 80 °C.

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.
