About the Airtac B01-ACQ Dedicated Pneumatic Cylinder B01-ACQ32X25
The B01-ACQ32X25 is an AirTAC application-dedicated (customer-specified) variant of the standard ACQ32X25, sharing identical mechanics and dimensions. It is a double-acting, single-rod JIS compact cylinder that provides a push force of 402.1 N and a pull force of 301.6 N at 0.5 MPa. The short C-clip and riveted body design drastically reduces axial footprint compared to round-body alternatives.
This 32 mm bore unit features a 16 mm piston rod and PT1/8 ports. It relies on a fixed NBR elastomer bumper at each end to absorb end-stop energy rather than an adjustable air cushion. The body includes grooves for magnetic switches, though this specific SKU ships without the internal magnet.

Where the Airtac B01-ACQ Dedicated Pneumatic Cylinder B01-ACQ32X25 Is Used
PCB Edge Routing
Clamps printed circuit board panels during routing operations where a 402.1 N extend force secures the substrate without crushing components.
Carton Flap Folding
Drives the mechanical flap folders on small case erectors, utilizing the 25 mm stroke to tuck side flaps before tape application.
Textile Guide Arms
Actuates thread guide arms on weaving machinery, taking advantage of the short body length to minimize spatial interference in dense loom setups.
Is the Airtac B01-ACQ Dedicated Pneumatic Cylinder B01-ACQ32X25 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this model, consider stepping down to the 25 mm bore (offering 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa) for lighter duties, or moving up to the 40 mm bore (providing 628.3 N push at 0.5 MPa) for heavier loads. To confirm your ordering essentials: specify the 32 mm bore, 25 mm stroke, PT1/8 port, female M8x1.25 rod thread, and no magnet. Note that a plain compact cylinder drifts if air pressure drops; use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for fail-safe load holding.
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-ACQ32X25 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 402.1 N and the pull force is 301.6 N. At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 562.9 N. The maximum push force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure spans 0.15-1.0 MPa with a speed range of 30-500 mm/s.
The B01- prefix simply marks this as an AirTAC application-dedicated (customer-specified) line; it is mechanically identical to the ACQ32X25. It does not have adjustable air cushions. Instead, it uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends to decelerate the piston, so high-speed applications may require external shock absorbers.
