Product Information
Full details
This guide is for engineers and technicians working with pneumatic systems who need a reliable mounting solution for Festo DNC Series Standard Cylinders. The Festo Clevis Flange (Model 174390) provides a secure and durable connection, allowing for swivel functionality. A key benefit is its robust diecast aluminum construction and copper/PTFE-free design, ensuring broad material compatibility and reduced corrosion risk. However, it's specifically designed for 32mm bore cylinders and may not be suitable for other sizes.

FAQs
What is the primary purpose of this clevis flange?
The Festo Clevis Flange is used to securely mount Festo DNC Series Standard Cylinders (32mm bore) and provides a swivel capability for flexible articulation.
Is this flange compatible with cylinders other than the Festo DNC Series?
While it is primarily designed for the Festo DNC Series with a 32mm bore, its physical dimensions and mounting interface might allow compatibility with other similar cylinders, but this is not guaranteed and should be verified.
What is the operating temperature range for this flange?
The flange can operate reliably in temperatures ranging from -40 °C (minimum) to 90 °C (maximum).
Why is it important that the flange is copper and PTFE-free?
Being copper and PTFE-free makes the flange suitable for applications where these materials could cause issues, such as environmental regulations (RoHS compliance) or specific material sensitivities in the surrounding system, potentially reducing corrosion risk.
Does the flange come with mounting hardware?
The product information does not specify included hardware. It is recommended to use appropriate fasteners suitable for the load and environment, which may need to be sourced separately.
How much does the flange weigh?
The product weight is 103 grams.
What does 'KBK: 1 - Low corrosion stress' mean?
This indicates that the material and design of the flange are suitable for environments with low levels of corrosive stress, contributing to its durability.
Troubleshooting
Flange does not fit cylinder rod end.
Verify that you are using a Festo DNC Series Standard Cylinder with a 32mm bore. This flange is specifically designed for this size and series.
Loose connection after installation.
Check that the correct fasteners have been used and are properly tightened. Ensure the mating mounting surface is also secure.
Signs of corrosion or material degradation.
Inspect the operating environment for corrosive agents. While the material is resistant, extreme conditions may still cause degradation over time. Ensure the temperature stays within the specified operating range (-40 °C to 90 °C).
Swivel function is stiff or binding.
Ensure the clevis pin or mounting hardware that interfaces with the flange's eye is clean, properly lubricated (if required by the system), and not obstructed. Check for any foreign debris within the swivel mechanism.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Durable and robust construction from diecast aluminum.
- Wide operating temperature range for diverse environments.
- Copper and PTFE-free composition enhances material compatibility.
- RoHS compliant, meeting environmental regulations.
- Designed for specific Festo DNC series, ensuring good fit.
Cons
- Limited to 32mm bore size cylinders.
- Primarily designed for Festo DNC Series, may not fit other brands/models.
- Swivel function might introduce slight play compared to fixed mounts.
- Requires appropriate fasteners for installation (not included).
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure the Festo DNC Series Standard Cylinder has a 32mm bore size.
- Align the clevis flange with the cylinder's rod end.
- Secure the flange using appropriate fasteners (e.g., bolts and nuts) through the mounting holes. Ensure fasteners are rated for the intended load and environment.
- Connect the flange's clevis eye to the mating component or mounting bracket.
Compatibility:
- Primary: Festo DNC Series Standard Cylinders with a 32mm bore.
- Environmental: Suitable for operating temperatures between -40 °C and 90 °C.
- Material: Copper and PTFE-free, making it compatible with a wide range of systems.
Care:
- Periodically inspect the flange for signs of wear, damage, or corrosion, especially if operating in harsh environments.
- Clean the exterior with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the material or finish.
- Ensure mounting fasteners remain tight to prevent movement or failure.
