The AirTAC Airtac B01-ACQ Dedicated Pneumatic Cylinder B01-ACQ50X35 is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (thin) air cylinder built to JIS dimensions, with a Ø50mm bore and 35mm stroke, PT1/4 air ports and a C-clip / riveted short body that saves mounting depth. Magnetic-switch slots around the body accept position sensors.
The B01-ACQ50X35 is an AirTAC double-acting JIS compact cylinder with a 50 mm bore and 35 mm stroke. The leading "B01-" prefix marks this as an application-dedicated (customer-specified) variant of the standard ACQ50X35, meaning it is mechanically identical to the base model. It delivers a push force of 981.8 N and a pull force of 824.6 N at 0.5 MPa, utilizing a 20 mm piston rod.
This thin profile saves axial mounting depth versus round-body alternatives by using a C-clip and riveted piston-to-rod connection. It features a PT1/4 port and relies on a fixed NBR elastomer bumper at each end to absorb end stops rather than an adjustable air cushion. The body includes magnetic-switch grooves, though this specific SKU ships without the internal magnet.

Routes PET containers on a high-speed packaging line using 981.8 N of push force to actuate guide rails over a 35 mm travel distance.
Folds corrugated box flaps prior to tape sealing, where the short C-clip body minimizes axial footprint inside tight machine frames.
Acts as a positive stop for wooden pallets entering a lift station, relying on the fixed NBR bumper to absorb the kinetic impact.
When sizing this 50 mm bore actuator, consider stepping down to the 40 mm bore (628.3 N push at 0.5 MPa) for lighter loads, or up to the 63 mm bore (1558.6 N push at 0.5 MPa) for higher force requirements. Be aware that a plain ACQ cylinder does not hold its position if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered; the rod will drift, and the fixed bumper only decelerates near the stroke end. For fail-safe holding, an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required.
To order, confirm the 50 mm bore, 35 mm stroke, PT1/4 port, and the default female rod-end thread (M10x1.5). This model lacks the -S magnet option and operates within the standard 30-500 mm/s speed range.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 981.8 N and the pull force is 824.6 N. At 0.7 MPa, the push force reaches 1374.4 N. The maximum push force is 200 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 indicates an application-dedicated (customer-specified) variant that is mechanically identical to the standard ACQ50X35. It does not have adjustable air cushions; instead, it uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both stroke ends. For high-energy cycles, add an external shock absorber or slow the approach speed.
