About the Airtac B01-ACQ Dedicated Pneumatic Cylinder B01-ACQ32X10
The AirTAC B01-ACQ32X10 is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder engineered for space-constrained machinery. The leading "B01-" prefix designates this as an application-dedicated (customer-specified) variant of the standard ACQ32X10, meaning it shares the exact same mechanical architecture without altering any physical specifications. It delivers a push force of 402.1 N and a pull force of 301.6 N at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for short 10 mm actuation tasks.
This model features a 16 mm piston rod and a PT1/8 port. The body utilizes a hard-anodized aluminum bore with a C-clip and riveted piston-to-rod connection to minimize overall axial length. Deceleration at the stroke ends relies on a fixed NBR elastomer bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion. While the housing includes grooves for magnetic switches, this specific SKU ships without a sensor magnet and uses a default female M8x1.25 rod-end thread.

Where the Airtac B01-ACQ Dedicated Pneumatic Cylinder B01-ACQ32X10 Is Used
PCB Depaneling Ejector
Provides a rapid 10 mm ejection stroke to push singulated circuit boards away from the routing bit on an electronics assembly line, utilizing the 402.1 N extend force within a compact machine footprint.
Carton Flap Tucker
Tucks minor flaps on small pharmaceutical cartons just prior to the sealing head, where the short 10 mm stroke and fixed NBR bumper reliably absorb the end-of-travel impact without requiring external cushions.
Pneumatic Indexing Gate
Acts as a short-stroke diverter gate on a conveyor system, using the 16 mm rod and female M8x1.25 thread to mount a small flap that redirects lightweight plastic components down a reject chute.
Is the Airtac B01-ACQ Dedicated Pneumatic Cylinder B01-ACQ32X10 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this actuator, consider stepping down to a 25 mm bore (providing 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa) for lighter duties, or moving up to a 40 mm bore (yielding 628.3 N push at 0.5 MPa) if your load requires more authority. To order, confirm the 32 mm bore, 10 mm stroke, PT1/8 port, female rod thread, and the absence of a magnet. The 32 mm bore class supports standard strokes up to 100 mm, with long-stroke options extending to 300 mm.
Keep in mind that a standard compact cylinder like this does not hold its position if air pressure is lost or the directional valve is centered; the rod will drift. If your application demands fail-safe load holding, you must integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve into the pneumatic circuit.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Short-body depth vs. a round-body cylinder
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G / NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (S) for sensors?
- ✓ Female (blank) or male (B) rod thread
- ✓ Side load — avoid on a compact rod
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the short piston rod.
- check Very long strokes are unsuitable for the compact body.
- check Handle the C-clip carefully; seat it fully in its groove.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac B01-ACQ Dedicated Pneumatic Cylinder B01-ACQ32X10 FAQ
This 32 mm bore cylinder provides a push force of 402.1 N and a pull force of 301.6 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 562.9 N, with a maximum push capacity of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It operates between 0.15 and 1.0 MPa, handles speeds of 30-500 mm/s, and functions in temperatures from -20 to +70 C.
The B01- prefix indicates an application-dedicated (customer-specified) variant of the ACQ32X10, mechanically identical to the base model. Regarding sensing, while the cylinder body features machined grooves for AirTAC reed or electronic switches, this specific SKU is manufactured without the internal magnet, so it cannot trigger position sensors as shipped.
