Guided Actuator with 160 mm Stroke
The Festo DFM-50-160-P-A-GF is a guided actuator built for precise linear motion in automated systems. It integrates a cylinder with plain-bearing guide rods to resist side loads and maintain alignment. The unit is supplied new in a single pack under part number 170876. It suits machine builders who need repeatable positioning in a compact housing.
Automation Engineers Not Manual Tool Users
This component fits pneumatic control circuits on assembly lines, packaging machines or material-handling cells. It is not a hand-held power tool and does not suit electricians wiring cabinets or technicians doing field repairs. Buyers who need a portable drill, driver or tester should look elsewhere. The actuator requires a compressed-air supply and mounting design to operate.
160 mm Stroke Length Decides Fit
The 160 mm stroke determines the maximum travel distance between end positions. Verify that your application demands exactly this reach before ordering. The 50 mm bore sets the force available at your supply pressure. If the required travel is shorter or longer, this model will not match the mechanical layout.

Questions about this item
What pneumatic pressure standard does the DFM-50-160-P-A-GF operate at, and what force does that cap in practice?
The DFM-50-160-P-A-GF is a pneumatic guided actuator designed for standard compressed-air systems; its 50 mm bore and 160 mm stroke define the force and travel limits in typical automation setups.
What mounting pattern and clearances does the DFM-50-160-P-A-GF need to fit in a machine frame?
The guided actuator uses the standard DFM series mounting interface with a 50 mm bore footprint; allow space for the 160 mm stroke extension plus guide-rod over-travel when designing the frame.
How is the DFM-50-160-P-A-GF installed, and which step do installers most often get wrong?
Mount the body using the DFM series bolt pattern, plumb both air ports, then align the guide rods before tightening; the step often missed is verifying rod parallelism under pressure to prevent binding.
