Bimba FO-17-2 Flat Bore Precision Pneumatic Cylinder

Bimba FO-17-2 Flat Bore Precision Pneumatic Cylinder is a compact linear actuator designed for precise, repeatable motion in tight spaces. The model code 17 indicates a 1-1/2 inch bore, placing this cylinder in BIMBA’s Flat-Bore family that emphasizes a low-profile footprint for space-constrained automation. The flat-bore geometry helps minimize overall width and simplifies mounting in assemblies where a traditional round cylinder would create interference. This cylinder is well-suited to repetitive actuation tasks such as clamping, part transfer, and fixture positioning in packaging, assembly, and material-handling lines where reliable pneumatic performance is essential. Because variant end-caps, porting, and mounting options differ by model, consult BIMBA's official documentation or a BIMBA distributor to confirm the exact configurations available for FO-17-2 and ensure compatibility with your application. Built to withstand standard industrial use, this flat-bore cylinder benefits from BIMBA’s reputation for precision machining and durable construction, making it a dependable choice for tight-pack installations. For integrated systems, pairing with proper air preparation and control can optimize response and longevity, so verify bore, stroke (as specified for FO-17-2), and mounting compatibility against the official BIMBA catalog before purchase.
