FD17 compact linear actuator is a slim miniature electric push rod with stable thrust, supporting 12V/24V DC power supply. Compact body fits limited installation space. Designed for indoor dry environments. Custom stroke, speed and mounting accessories are available with OEM support.
Product overview
The FD17 compact linear actuator is an optimized miniature electric linear actuator developed for space-restricted indoor installation scenarios.
Adopting a slim outer casing design, it delivers stable linear push-pull motion with small overall dimensions. Multiple thrust ranges, customizable stroke and variable speed can be configured according to project requirements.
This actuator works with 12V / 24V DC power. It is designed for dry indoor environments and not suitable for waterproof, damp or underwater working conditions. The unit operates smoothly with low noise and long service life, featuring simple installation.
Commonly used in indoor automation equipment, medical devices, intelligent furniture and cabinet adjustment systems. We support OEM customization on cable length, connectors and mounting brackets.

Mounting points
FD17 compact linear actuator is equipped with standard mounting holes on front and rear ends.
The symmetrical mounting structure allows horizontal, vertical or inclined installation.
Matched mounting brackets can be supplied as optional accessories.
Please confirm installation space and load direction before mechanical assembly.
Performance characteristic curves
The FD17 compact linear actuator is equipped with three sets of professional characteristic curves to reflect its electrical and mechanical performance under load:
Speed VS Load (12/24VDC): Shows the linear relationship between operating speed and load force. The actuator’s speed decreases gradually as the external load increases, presenting a stable negative correlation curve for 12V and 24V voltage modes, ensuring predictable speed regulation under different load conditions.
Current VS Load (24VDC): Reflects the change in working current with load under 24VDC input. The working current rises steadily with the increase of load, presenting a smooth positive correlation curve, which provides a reference for circuit matching and power supply configuration.
Current VS Load (12VDC): Displays the current-load characteristic under 12VDC input. The current changes linearly with the load, consistent with the actuator’s low-voltage high-efficiency operation law, supporting stable current output under different load pressures.
Frequently Asked Questions about FD17 Compact Linear Actuator
Q1: What voltage options are available for FD17 linear actuator?
A1: The FD17 series support 12VDC and 24VDC as standard working voltage. Other voltage versions can be customized upon request.
Q2: Is FD17 waterproof or suitable for outdoor use?
A2: FD17 is designed for dry indoor use only and does not have waterproof protection. Please avoid any contact with water or damp environments.
Q3: Can I customize stroke length and thrust for FD17?
A3: Certainly. We support customized stroke, thrust, operating speed, wire length and mounting brackets to match your specific automation equipment requirements.
Q4: Does FD17 linear actuator come with built-in limit switches?
A4: Yes. The standard FD17 actuator is equipped with built-in mechanical limit switches to stop automatically at fully extended and retracted positions.
Q5: What is the typical duty cycle of FD17 micro actuator?
A5: FD17 is designed for intermittent operation. Please avoid continuous long-hour running under full load to extend service life. Contact us for detailed duty cycle data.
Q6: What mounting method does FD17 adopt?
A6: The standard design features clevis mounting on both ends. Custom end fittings are available is the standard connection can’t match your mechanism.

Customers say
We need a very special Actuator unlike ones sold anywhere. Sophie at Sanxing was incredibly helpful and able to understand what we were looking for and able to effectively get us on the right path to a solution. We got samples quickly for us to test quality and fit, Cads/drawings for our custom order, and excellent pricing! We could not be more pleased at this time.
OMG, this has been the best online customer service I have ever received. Maria Z. has been in contact with me every step of the way from start to delivery. The product was made to my exact specifications. It arrived on time in a properly pack box. No shipping damaged whatsoever. All items work perfectly. I am a raving fan and will use Yuyao Sanxing again. It was such an awesome sales experience.
I am highly satisfied with the quick and professional fulfilment of my order. After our initial dispair over the loss of functionality of the remote control for our mother’s favourite TV-chair, we are now extremely happy that the manufacturer of the original item has acted helpful and fast with the replacement. Shipment was – naturally – more expensive than the item itself, but it was well worth it.
FAQs
All actuators come with a 12 month warranty. User error and misuse will not be covered under warranty. Please contact with us to supply you the best solution.
Of course, sample orders are accept.
Please send us your inquiry, including the input voltage, load capacity, speed and stroke ( extending distance ) of the actuator, as well as the order quantity, it would be helpful to us to recommend you with a right actuator and offer a more accurate quotation.
Usually shipping by express, by air and by sea. Express is normally the most quickest but also most expensive way. It’s the usual way for samples. By sea is the best solution for big amounts. We could arrange the shipping for you, or you can use your own forwarder to arrange the shipping. Please contact us for further information.
Yes, of course we can. We are OEM supplier for years and professional to make. But you need to give us the authorization if it is necessary.
