What kind of ribbon connector should I use to connect to an Arduino, or just regular wires?

I had unit mounted on pad-per-hole perf board so for mechanical stability I tack soldered wires to a row of pads which then could connect to whatever. Had to exercise care in the the soldering and any stressing - flex cable is delicate.

how much force does this apply at 3v and 5v?

Did not measure the force. It was enough force to move our geared mechanism.

What is the maximum axial force this actuator can sustain? And what is the power draw at 6V?

Not sure- my application was lightly loaded.

What is the linear travel speed (mm/sec)?

Depends on driver I think - but I’m sure it could go the whole length in a second or two, driven by 5V H bridge through 200 ohm.
