Bimba FOD-040.5-B Flat 1 Miniature Pneumatic Cylinder

The Bimba FOD-040.5-B Flat-1 miniature pneumatic cylinder is a compact, flat-body actuator designed for space-constrained linear motion. It is part of Bimba's Flat-1 family and corresponds to the FO-040.5 configuration, with a 3/4-inch bore and a 1/2-inch stroke. This pancake-style cylinder provides short-stroke actuation in tight spaces, making it suitable for installations where a larger cylinder would not fit. Its low-profile geometry supports mounting in compact fixtures and assemblies, helping minimize overall machine footprint. Its flat body can be mounted in confined spaces between close-fitting components and within recessed bays in automation hardware. Because exact porting and end-cap configurations vary by build, verify the specific configuration for your application. Intended for repetitive, controlled movements in standard industrial environments, the FOD-040.5-B is designed to operate with conventional pneumatic systems that supply compressed air to the cylinder. For exact dimensions, material selection, and mounting patterns, consult the official Bimba datasheet for FOD-040.5-B or the FO-040.5 family to ensure compatibility with your design.
