Airtac ATQ Single Acting Thin Cylinder ATQ63X30
The AirTAC Airtac ATQ Single Acting Thin Cylinder ATQ63X30 is a genuine single-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder (single acting, pull type) with a Ø63mm bore and 30mm 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 ATQ63X30
The AirTAC ATQ63X30 is a single-acting PULL-type JIS compact cylinder. Supplying air to the single PT1/4 port retracts the 20mm rod, while an internal spring extends it upon exhaust. This fail-safe behavior drives the rod to its extended rest position if air pressure drops below the 0.2 MPa minimum. The 30mm stroke is the maximum standard travel for this 63mm bore.
At 0.7 MPa, it provides a 1962.2 N theoretical pull (1401.5 N at 0.5 MPa) before spring deduction. The return spring lowers net output, so confirm exact usable force from the datasheet. Impact deceleration relies on a fixed NBR elastomer bumper, not an adjustable air cushion, making it ideal for short, repetitive tensioning tasks.
Airtac ATQ Single Acting Thin Cylinder ATQ63X30 Technical Specifications

| Stroke | 30 mm |
| Acting type | Single acting, pull type |
| Port size | PT1/4 |
| Rod end thread | M10×1.5 female / M18×1.5 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 (Ø63mm, Pull)
| Pressure | Pull force (before spring) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 1402 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1962 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 ATQ63X30 Is Used
Heavy Gate Retraction
Uses the powered pull stroke to withdraw a heavy security gate on a packaging conveyor, letting the internal spring push it closed during a safe air-loss event.
Tensioning Clamps
Draws a 20mm rod back to maintain high tension on film or wire routing systems, automatically extending to release the material when the air supply is cut.
Pin Extraction Jig
Pulls locating pins out of heavy machining fixtures via the 1962.2 N theoretical retract force at 0.7 MPa, utilizing the fixed NBR bumper to absorb the stop impact.
Is the Airtac ATQ Single Acting Thin Cylinder ATQ63X30 the Right Cylinder?
For lighter tensioning, the 50mm bore offers 824.6 N theoretical pull at 0.5 MPa, while the 63mm bore chosen here provides 1401.5 N at the same pressure. If your application requires a longer travel distance beyond the 30mm maximum single-acting limit, select the double-acting ACQ series instead. When ordering this pull-type unit, verify the 63mm bore, 30mm stroke, and the default female M10x1.5 rod-end 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 ATQ63X30 FAQ
It delivers a 1401.5 N theoretical pull at 0.5 MPa and 1962.2 N at 0.7 MPa before the return spring lowers net output. It is a single-acting pull type requiring a 0.2 MPa minimum operating pressure, with a maximum 30mm stroke.
Deceleration is managed by a fixed NBR elastomer bumper at the end of travel, not an adjustable air cushion. Because it is a spring-extend pull cylinder, losing air pressure automatically pushes the 20mm rod out to its extended rest position.
