Description
Artec PDMPA 080 160 GS F ISO 21287 compact cylinder specifications
Artec PDMPA 080 160 GS F is an ISO 21287 compact cylinder configured as a double-acting version. The code specifies a female threaded rod and standard seals. Its 80 mm bore and 160 mm stroke distinguish its force class and axial travel within the ISO 21287 compact body range.

Construction and operation
This 80 mm bore, 160 mm stroke double-acting version uses a female rod end with standard seals and a double-rod layout, an anti-rotation bracket. Series P follows ISO 21287 compact-cylinder dimensions and uses an anodised aluminium profile with sensor mounting slots. Its magnetic piston can be monitored with a separately selected compatible sensor. Compressed air drives both extension and return in this double-acting model; the control valve must address both sides of the piston.
Performance and selection
The 160 mm stroke sets travel, while the 80 mm piston bore and rods at both ends determine effective pressure area in this double-rod variant. Artec PDMPA 080 160 GS F is rated for 1 to 10 bar working pressure with filtered compressed air. As a Series P reference, the current Artec catalogue gives 2,827 N theoretical extension thrust at 6 bar for this bore and rod arrangement. Match the catalogue issue to the exact cylinder before sizing the load; friction and pressure losses reduce usable output. GS identifies the standard seal execution; this code does not specify high-temperature seals. The double-rod option exposes a piston rod at each end and needs clearance on both sides. The anti-rotation bracket constrains rod twist; include its envelope in mounting checks. The F rod-end interface accepts a matching male fastener; it does not take the same rod-end attachment as an M male-thread version.

Lead Time
Product Availability
We work with a wide network of trusted manufacturers and suppliers to offer a comprehensive range of industrial components and systems. Many popular items are held in stock and available for prompt dispatch. These products are supplied directly from our UK facilities where possible to minimise lead times.
Order In and Made to Order Items
Some specialist products are not held as off the shelf stock. These items are ordered directly from the manufacturer and may be produced to order or configured for specific applications. As a result, lead times can be longer than standard stocked products, particularly for low volume or unique items. Lead times will vary depending on supplier schedules and production requirements.
Lead Times and Order Updates
For all order in products, we aim to provide clear lead time information at the point of order or shortly afterwards. Our team will keep you informed throughout the process and will advise if supplier lead times change. If you have a time critical requirement, we recommend contacting us before placing your order so we can confirm availability.
Delivery Charges
Additional delivery charges may apply to large orders, oversized items, palletised shipments, or deliveries outside the UK mainland including remote locations. Our sales team can confirm any applicable charges either before or after your order is placed to ensure full transparency.
Availability and Lead Time Enquiries
For the latest information on product availability and current lead times, please contact our team directly. We will confirm stock status, supplier lead times, and delivery expectations to support your ordering decision. You can email info@aegroup.uk.com or call +44 (0)1342 826488 to speak with a member of our team who can assist with your enquiry.
More Than Components
Experts you can trust. Technologies you can depend on.
Air Engineering Group is more than a component supplier. We operate as an engineering partner supporting customers from concept through to long term operation. Our role extends beyond product supply into system design, integration, build, installation, and lifecycle support. This approach allows us to solve complex technical challenges while improving reliability, efficiency, and operational assurance across demanding industrial environments.
Our OEM Fluid Technology Division focuses on engineered solutions for original equipment manufacturers. We support customers with design input, component selection, manifold assemblies, sub assemblies, and fully integrated pneumatic and fluid systems. Working closely with OEM teams, we help reduce complexity, improve performance, and accelerate development while maintaining consistency from prototype through to production.
The Compressed Air and Gas Division delivers complete compressed air and gas solutions for industrial and commercial applications. This includes system design, equipment supply, installation, commissioning, servicing, and ongoing maintenance. By taking responsibility for the full system, we help customers improve uptime, control energy use, and protect critical assets throughout their operational life.
Our Pneumatic and Fluid Product Division provides a comprehensive range of valves, actuators, regulators, filtration, fittings, and control components. Supported by in house technical expertise, this division ensures customers specify the correct products for their application while benefiting from reliable supply and informed engineering support. Together, these three divisions position us as a complete engineering solutions provider rather than a simple distributor.
Our approach to business is built around a clear customer first focus supported by engineering integrity and accountability. We take time to understand each application, operating environment, and performance requirement before recommending or designing a solution. This ensures customers receive systems and components that deliver reliability, efficiency, and long term value rather than short term fixes. Through clear communication, responsive support, and consistent technical standards, we build trusted partnerships that prioritise uptime, risk reduction, and operational confidence.

Applications & Integrations
Applications
Artec PDMPA 080 160 GS F is an 80 mm bore by 160 mm stroke Series P ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a female rod connection for space-limited fixtures, compact transfer tooling or short-travel positioning. The 160 mm travel determines the mechanical reach, while available load force depends on the 80 mm bore and the air pressure actually delivered to the actuator. Both strokes are air driven, allowing the valve sequence to control outward and return travel. The double-rod version offers a connection at each end, so the machine may use or accommodate movement on both sides. The anti-rotation bracket is relevant when the driven tooling must resist twisting around the rod axis.
Integrations
Connect the 80 mm bore PDMPA 080 160 GS F, with its GS seal execution and female rod connection, at its G1/8 air ports to a filtered compressed-air circuit that controls both powered strokes with a suitable directional valve. Use its standard compact mounting envelope to position the mounting and leave enough clearance for its 160 mm stroke and any moving linkage. Match its female rod connection to the driven part, checking the exact thread, pitch and attachment geometry against the relevant Artec drawing. Reserve space for the anti-rotation bracket and check its mounting position relative to surrounding tooling. Allow access to both rod ends and place each linkage clear of adjacent equipment. GS standard seals require the standard published operating environment and must not be treated as a high-temperature option.
