The AirTAC Airtac B01-ACQ Dedicated Pneumatic Cylinder B01-ACQ25X35B is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (thin) air cylinder built to JIS dimensions, with a Ø25mm bore and 35mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a C-clip / riveted short body that saves mounting depth. Magnetic-switch slots around the body accept position sensors.
The B01-ACQ25X35B is an AirTAC application-dedicated (customer-specified) variant of the standard ACQ25X35B, sharing the exact same physical specifications. It is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder that provides a push force of 245.4 N and a pull force of 188.9 N at 0.5 MPa. The short C-clip and riveted body design significantly reduces axial footprint compared to traditional round-body units, making it ideal for tight machine envelopes.
This specific model features a male-threaded piston rod end (M10x1.25) for direct load coupling, a 12 mm rod diameter, and an M5x0.8 port. End-of-stroke deceleration is handled by a fixed TPU elastomer bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion, meaning external shock absorbers should be added for high-energy cycles. The body includes magnetic-switch grooves, though this SKU ships without the internal magnet.

Provides the 245.4 N extension force needed to actuate the cutting head feed on an electronic board depaneling machine, where the male M10x1.25 rod threads directly into the tool carriage.
Drives the mechanical flap-folding arm on a packaging line, utilizing the 35 mm stroke to tuck corrugated box flaps prior to tape sealing within a constrained frame.
Positions and holds small metal brackets in a light-duty stamping press, relying on the fixed TPU bumper to soften the 30-500 mm/s travel impact at the end of the stroke.
When sizing this 25 mm bore actuator, stepping down to a 20 mm bore reduces the 0.5 MPa push force to 157.1 N, while stepping up to a 32 mm bore increases it to 402.1 N. Ensure your ordering essentials match this configuration: 25 mm bore, 35 mm stroke, M5x0.8 port, male M10x1.25 rod thread, and no sensor magnet. Note that a plain compact cylinder like this does not hold its position if air pressure is lost; the rod will drift and the fixed bumper only decelerates it near the stroke end. For a fail-safe hold, an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required.
Quick checklist
This 25 mm bore cylinder delivers a push force of 245.4 N and a pull force of 188.9 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 343.6 N, with a maximum push capacity of 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The maximum standard stroke available for this bore size is 100 mm.
The B01- prefix indicates this is an AirTAC application-dedicated (customer-specified) variant of the ACQ25X35B, meaning it is mechanically identical to the base model. It does not have an adjustable air cushion; instead, it uses a fixed TPU elastomer bumper at each end to absorb the stop impact. For high-speed applications, you should slow the approach or add an external shock absorber.
