Product Information
Full details
This Festo Rod Clevis (SG-M48X2) is designed for engineers and technicians working with pneumatic systems requiring a robust and standardized connection for actuators. Its key benefit is providing a secure, ISO 8140 compliant attachment point that ensures reliable operation and easy integration. A potential consideration is its specific bore size compatibility, requiring precise matching with the actuator rod. This component is part of the 9583 series and is essential for converting linear motion from a pneumatic cylinder into a pivoting or linkage motion.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
What does the 'SG-M48X2' designation mean?
The 'SG' typically refers to the product type (Clevis), 'M48' indicates compatibility with a 48mm bore size actuator rod, and 'X2' often relates to thread pitch or series specifics. Always refer to the official Festo documentation for precise meanings.
What standards does this rod clevis conform to?
This Festo Rod Clevis SG-M48X2 conforms to ISO 8140 standards for pneumatic cylinder accessories.
Do I need to purchase a clevis pin separately?
Yes, the clevis pin and any retaining clips are typically sold separately and must be chosen based on the clevis eye diameter and application requirements.
Can this clevis be used with hydraulic actuators?
This component is specifically designed for pneumatic systems. While mechanical dimensions might seem compatible, hydraulic systems often have different pressure, sealing, and environmental requirements. It is recommended to use components specifically designed for hydraulic applications.
What is the warranty period for this Festo product?
Warranty information varies by region and specific sales agreement. Please consult your Festo supplier or the official Festo warranty documentation for details.
How can I ensure the clevis is securely attached to the actuator rod?
Ensure the clevis is threaded fully onto the rod and tightened according to the actuator's manual specifications. Proper thread engagement and final torque are crucial for a secure connection.
Is this clevis part of a specific Festo series?
Yes, this rod clevis is part of Festo's 9583 series.
Troubleshooting
Clevis does not thread onto actuator rod.
Verify the actuator rod has a 48mm bore and the correct thread pitch and type. Ensure the rod end is clean and undamaged. The clevis may be from a different series or have incompatible threading.
Loose or wobbly connection after installation.
Ensure the clevis is fully threaded onto the actuator rod and tightened appropriately. Check that the clevis pin and retaining clip are correctly installed and sized for the clevis eye.
Premature wear or damage to the clevis.
Inspect the connected linkage for misalignment or excessive side loading. Ensure the clevis is operating within its designed range of motion and not exceeding pressure or load limits. Check for environmental contaminants.
Component does not fit with mating part.
Confirm that both the clevis eye and the mating component's pin/fork are compatible and manufactured to the same standard (e.g., ISO 8140). Ensure the correct clevis pin is used.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High adherence to international standards (ISO 8140) for reliable integration.
- Durable construction from a reputable manufacturer (Festo) ensures longevity.
- Precisely matches 48mm bore actuators for secure fitting.
- Facilitates efficient conversion of linear pneumatic motion to other mechanical movements.
- Part of a recognized product series (9583) for system planning.
Cons
- Limited to specific bore size (48mm), requiring careful selection.
- Not a universal component; requires compatibility check with the specific actuator.
- Requires appropriate mating hardware (e.g., clevis pin, retaining clip) not included with the clevis itself.
- Primarily for pneumatic systems; may not be suitable for hydraulic or other applications.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: To install the Festo Rod Clevis SG-M48X2, ensure the pneumatic actuator rod is clean and free of debris. Slide the clevis onto the actuator rod, aligning the internal threading with the rod's thread. Securely thread the clevis onto the actuator rod, ensuring it is hand-tight before final tightening with appropriate tools according to actuator specifications. Use a suitable clevis pin and retaining clip (sold separately) to connect the clevis to the mating component.
Compatibility: This rod clevis is specifically designed for pneumatic actuators with a 48mm bore size. It conforms to ISO 8140 standards, making it compatible with other components adhering to this standard. Always verify the actuator rod thread size and type for a correct match. It is intended for use within typical pneumatic operating pressure and temperature ranges.
Care: Regularly inspect the clevis for signs of wear, corrosion, or damage. Clean the exterior with a slightly damp cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the material. Ensure the connection remains secure and that the clevis pin is properly seated. Lubrication is generally not required for the clevis itself, but follow the actuator manufacturer's recommendations for rod lubrication.
