Airtac ATQ Single Acting Thin Cylinder ATQ32X10SBCB
The AirTAC Airtac ATQ Single Acting Thin Cylinder ATQ32X10SBCB 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 ATQ32X10SBCB
The AirTAC ATQ32X10SBCB is a JIS compact single-acting PULL cylinder where pressurized air retracts the 16mm rod, while an internal spring drives extension upon exhaust. This fail-safe design automatically extends the rod to its rest position if air pressure drops below the 0.2 MPa minimum, suiting hold-down-release and tensioning logic. The theoretical pull force is 301.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 422.2 N at 0.7 MPa before the return spring lowers the net output, which you should confirm from the datasheet.
Designed for short-stroke automation, this 32mm bore unit features a 10mm travel, well under the 30mm maximum for this size. It integrates a fixed NBR elastomer bumper at each end to soften end-of-stroke impact, rather than an adjustable air cushion. The -S magnet enables position sensing across both reed and solid-state electronic switches, while the -B male M14x1.5 rod end and CB mounting bracket provide direct, versatile load coupling via a PT1/8 port.

| 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 ATQ32X10SBCB Is Used
Tensioning Systems
Applies air-side pulling to draw materials taut, relying on the spring to safely release tension upon air loss in textile or printing machinery.
Gate Retraction
Pulls a mechanical stop or diverter gate out of the product flow path on packaging lines, letting the internal spring push it back into blocking position when exhausted.
Clamp Release
Draws back a holding clamp on CNC fixturing to free the workpiece, utilizing the fail-safe extend to maintain clamping pressure during pneumatic outages.
Is the Airtac ATQ Single Acting Thin Cylinder ATQ32X10SBCB the Right Cylinder?
For sizing within the 12-63mm range, stepping down to a 25mm bore yields a 188.9 N theoretical pull at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to a 40mm bore provides 527.8 N. If your application requires travel beyond the 30mm maximum single-acting stroke, the double-acting ACQ series is the correct choice. To order this pull-type configuration correctly, verify the 32mm bore, 10mm stroke, -S magnet for sensors, -B male M14x1.5 rod thread, and the CB mounting accessory.
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 ATQ32X10SBCB FAQ
This 32mm bore cylinder provides a theoretical pull of 301.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 422.2 N at 0.7 MPa before the return spring reduces net output. It requires a 0.2 MPa minimum operating pressure to overcome the spring, and this 10mm stroke is within the 30mm maximum for this bore size.
The cylinder uses a fixed NBR elastomer bumper at each end to absorb impact rather than an adjustable air cushion. The included -S magnet works with both reed and electronic solid-state switches fitted into the body grooves for precise position detection.
