Airtac ATQ Single Acting Thin Cylinder ATQ32X10S
The AirTAC Airtac ATQ Single Acting Thin Cylinder ATQ32X10S is a genuine single-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder (single acting, pull type) with a Ø32mm 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.

About the Airtac ATQ Single Acting Thin Cylinder ATQ32X10S
The AirTAC ATQ32X10S is a JIS compact single-acting pull cylinder where compressed air retracts the Ø16 mm rod, while an internal spring drives the extension stroke. Feeding one PT1/8 port yields a theoretical pull of 301.6 N at 0.5 MPa (422.2 N at 0.7 MPa) before spring deduction; verify the net output via the datasheet. This 10 mm travel unit operates between 0.2-1.0 MPa.
It carries the -S magnet for position sensing alongside a fixed NBR elastomer bumper. Because air failure triggers a spring-driven extension, this unit suits hold-down-release or tensioning tasks. The female M8x1.25 rod end threads directly into your mechanism, keeping the overall envelope small.
Airtac ATQ Single Acting Thin Cylinder ATQ32X10S Technical Specifications

|---|---|
| Series | ATQ JIS compact single-acting cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Stroke | 10 mm |
| Acting type | Single acting, pull type |
| Port size | PT1/8 |
| Rod end thread | M8×1.25 female / M14×1.5 male (B) |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.2 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 50 – 500 mm/s |
| Cushion | Bumper |
| Max standard stroke | Up to 30 mm |
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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm, Pull)
| Pressure | Pull force (before spring) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 302 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 422 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.

Where the Airtac ATQ Single Acting Thin Cylinder ATQ32X10S Is Used
Pin Extraction
Pulls locating pins out of machining fixtures when air is applied, letting the spring safely push the pin back to a ready position upon exhaust.
Gate Retraction
Draws back a diverter gate on a packaging line, relying on the internal spring to extend the barrier and halt product flow during an air loss event.
Tension Release
Releases tension on web materials in converting machinery by retracting an idler roller, with the spring maintaining a baseline extension force.
Is the Airtac ATQ Single Acting Thin Cylinder ATQ32X10S the Right Cylinder?
For lighter duties, the Ø25 bore provides a 188.9 N theoretical pull at 0.5 MPa; stepping up to the Ø40 bore yields 527.8 N. If your mechanism needs travel beyond the 30 mm maximum for this series, select a double-acting ACQ instead. When ordering this model, verify the 10 mm stroke, the -S magnet, and the female M8x1.25 rod thread.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Net pull force (after spring) at your pressure
- ✓ Stroke ≤ 30 mm (single-acting limit)
- ✓ Single air line saves a valve/port
- ✓ Magnet (S) for sensors?
- ✓ Female (blank) or male (B) rod thread
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.2 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Remember the spring performs the return stroke.
- check Avoid side load on the short piston rod.
- check Handle the C-clip carefully; seat it fully in its groove.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac ATQ Single Acting Thin Cylinder ATQ32X10S FAQ
It delivers a theoretical pull of 301.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 422.2 N at 0.7 MPa before spring deduction. It is single-acting pull type with spring extend, requires a 0.2 MPa minimum operating pressure, and has a 10 mm stroke (max 30 mm for this bore).
If air pressure drops, the internal spring forces the rod into the extended position. End-of-stroke impact is managed by a fixed NBR elastomer bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion; for high kinetic energy loads, use an external shock absorber.
