A locking mechanism 101 for locking a system, the locking mechanism comprising a locking member 110 moveable in an axial direction A between a first position and a second position. The locking mechanism is able to lock the system when the locking member is in the first position and not to lock the system when the locking member is in the second position. The locking mechanism comprises an actuator 120 for moving the locking member between the first position and the second position, and a housing 130 that houses the locking member and the actuator. The actuator comprises a piston 121 that is static relative to the housing and a cylinder 122 that is moveable relative to the housing, and the cylinder forms at least a part of the locking member. The locking mechanism is configured to lock the system by absorbing bending forces F applied to the locking member by the system when the locking member is in the first position.
