The AirTAC Airtac ATQ Single Acting Thin Cylinder ATQ63X30SB 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.
The AirTAC ATQ63X30SB is a 63mm JIS compact cylinder built for single-acting PULL operation. Supplying air to the single PT1/4 port retracts the 20mm rod, while an internal mechanical spring drives the extension stroke upon exhaust. This fail-safe architecture ensures the rod automatically extends to its rest position if air pressure drops below the 0.2 MPa minimum, suiting hold-down-release and tensioning workflows.
Delivering 1401.5 N theoretical pull at 0.5 MPa and 1962.2 N at 0.7 MPa, note these are pre-spring figures; the return mechanism lowers net output, so verify exact net force from the datasheet. This 30mm stroke unit includes a fixed NBR elastomer bumper for end-of-stroke damping and a male M18x1.5 rod-end thread (-B) for direct load coupling.

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 | 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.

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).
Pulls a tension pin out of a heavy machining fixture to release finished metal parts safely.
Withdraws a routing gate on a high-speed packaging line using spring-extend fail-safe logic.
Draws a clamping jaw closed against industrial materials in automated textile machinery.
For sizing down, the 50mm bore neighbor offers 824.6 N theoretical pull at 0.5 MPa. If more force is required, this 63mm bore is the largest in the series. Since 30mm is the maximum standard single-acting stroke, any longer travel demands a double-acting ACQ cylinder. When ordering, confirm the 63mm bore, 30mm stroke, -S magnet for sensor tracking, and -B male M18x1.5 rod thread.
Quick checklist
It provides a theoretical pull of 1401.5 N at 0.5 MPa and 1962.2 N at 0.7 MPa before the return spring lowers net output. Operating pressure is 0.2-1.0 MPa, and the maximum standard stroke is 30 mm.
It uses a fixed NBR elastomer bumper for end-stop damping, not an adjustable air cushion. The -S magnet allows tracking by either reed or electronic solid-state switches in the body grooves.
