The AirTAC Airtac ATQ Single Acting Thin Cylinder ATQ25X10SB is a genuine single-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder (single acting, pull type) with a Ø25mm bore and 10mm stroke. Air pulles the rod and an internal spring performs the opposite stroke, so one solenoid line drives the motion — ideal for short-stroke clamping and ejection in tight spaces.
The AirTAC ATQ25X10SB is a JIS compact single-acting PULL cylinder, meaning compressed air fed to its single M5x0.8 port retracts the Ø12 mm rod, while an internal spring pushes it back out upon exhaust. This fail-safe extend behavior is ideal for tensioning or hold-down-release logic where venting air automatically returns the tool to its outward rest state. The 10 mm travel is well within the 30 mm maximum stroke limit for this 25 mm bore size.
Theoretical pull force is 188.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 264.5 N at 0.7 MPa, though the return spring lowers net usable output, so confirming exact net figures from the datasheet is recommended. This unit includes the -S magnet for position sensing via reed or solid-state switches, and the -B male M10x1.25 rod-end thread for direct load coupling. End-of-travel impact is managed by fixed TPU elastomer bumpers rather than adjustable cushions.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACQ-family datasheet. Single-acting types start at 0.2 MPa (the spring must be overcome). Confirm against the product label before installation.
| Pressure | Pull force (before spring) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 189 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 264 N |
These are theoretical air-side forces; the return-spring force reduces the NET usable output. Single-acting pull only — the spring performs the opposite stroke. Confirm the net figure from the datasheet and size with a safety margin.

Thread: PT standard (G / NPT available). ASQ pushes out / spring returns; ATQ pulls in / spring extends. Related: ACQ (double acting), ACQD (double rod), ACQJ (adjustable stroke).
Vents to spring-extend, pushing a locating pin outward to release a machined workpiece on an CNC mill.
Air pulls a diverter gate closed against a 188.9 N theoretical load at 0.5 MPa to sort packages on a line.
Exhausting air lets the spring extend the rod, safely opening a tensioned gripper on a carton sealing head.
For sizing context, the adjacent Ø20 bore offers a 117.8 N theoretical pull at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the Ø32 bore yields 301.6 N at 0.5 MPa. If your application requires more than the 30 mm maximum single-acting stroke for this bore, the double-acting ACQ series is the correct alternative. When ordering the ATQ25X10SB, confirm the 25 mm bore, 10 mm stroke, -S magnet requirement, and -B male M10x1.25 rod thread.
Quick checklist
It provides a theoretical pull of 188.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 264.5 N at 0.7 MPa before the return spring lowers the net output. It requires a 0.2 MPa minimum operating pressure to overcome the spring, and the maximum standard stroke for a 25 mm bore is 30 mm.
Loss of air pressure causes the internal spring to extend the rod to its outward rest position. Deceleration at stroke ends relies on fixed TPU elastomer bumpers rather than adjustable air cushions, so external shock absorbers may be needed for high-energy cycles.
