The AirTAC Airtac B01-ACQ Dedicated Pneumatic Cylinder B01-ACQ32X60B is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (thin) air cylinder built to JIS dimensions, with a Ø32mm bore and 60mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and a C-clip / riveted short body that saves mounting depth. Magnetic-switch slots around the body accept position sensors.
The B01-ACQ32X60B is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder delivering 402.1 N push and 301.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa. The leading B01- prefix designates this as an AirTAC application-dedicated (customer-specified) variant, mechanically identical to the standard ACQ32X60B. It utilizes a short C-clip and riveted body architecture to minimize axial footprint, fitting easily where round-body units cannot.
This specific unit includes a male M14x1.5 piston rod thread for direct load coupling and uses a PT1/8 port. Instead of an adjustable air cushion, it relies on a fixed NBR elastomer bumper at each end to absorb end-stop impact. The body features integrated magnetic-switch grooves, though this particular SKU ships without the internal magnet.

Pushes light cartons on a packaging line with 402.1 N of extend force, utilizing the 60 mm stroke to clear the conveyor belt path.
Presses small bearings into housings on an assembly machine, taking advantage of the male M14x1.5 rod end for a secure tooling attachment.
Secures electronic panels during testing, saving valuable axial depth inside tight machinery enclosures due to its short C-clip body.
When sizing this 32 mm bore actuator, stepping down to a 25 mm bore yields 245.4 N push, while stepping up to a 40 mm bore provides 628.3 N push at 0.5 MPa. Because this is a double-acting compact cylinder, it does not hold its position if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered; the rod will drift. For fail-safe load holding, an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required. To order, confirm the 32 mm bore, 60 mm stroke, PT1/8 port, male M14x1.5 rod thread, and no magnet.
Quick checklist
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 is 0.15-1.0 MPa, and the speed range is 30-500 mm/s.
The B01- prefix indicates this is an AirTAC application-dedicated (customer-specified) line of the base ACQ32X60B, sharing identical physical specs. It does not have adjustable air cushions; it uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both stroke ends to decelerate the piston.
