Re: actuators

If you mean for pneumatics then you can use the 3 free bimbas and also buy from them.

Re: actuators

If you are buying pneumatic actuator, best deal is with Bimba for the first 3 actuators, free with voucher, just pay shipping.

Re: actuators

After the free ones, McMaster-Carr has a better price than buying direct from bimba.
