The Festo FK-M20×1.5 self-aligning rod coupler connects a pneumatic cylinder rod to external mechanisms while allowing slight angular movement. Its main job is to reduce side loads on the cylinder rod during operation, especially in setups where perfect alignment is difficult to achieve. Instead of forcing rigid connections, this coupler compensates for slight misalignments, helping the cylinder move more freely and last longer in real working conditions.
In many machines, cylinders are not perfectly aligned with the load. Over time, this causes stress on seals, bearings, and rods. The FK-M20×1.5 allows controlled movement, keeping the force axial rather than bending the rod.
The coupler uses an M20 × 1.5 thread, making it compatible with cylinders and assemblies designed for this thread size. The self-aligning joint allows movement without loosening the connection or affecting positioning accuracy during normal operation. Its solid construction keeps the connection stable while still allowing the flexibility needed to protect the cylinder.
