About the Airtac B01-SDA Dedicated Cylinder B01-SDA25X10
The AirTAC B01-SDA25X10 is a double-acting single-rod compact cylinder. The leading B01- prefix designates this as an application-dedicated (customer-specified) variant of the base SDA25X10, meaning it is mechanically identical to the standard line but grouped for specific customer builds. It delivers 245.4 N of push force and 206.2 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa.
The short riveted body significantly reduces axial mounting depth compared to round-body units, making it ideal for tight machine footprints. It features a hard-anodized bore and a fixed NBR bumper at each end to decelerate the stroke. This specific SKU lacks a piston magnet and cannot accept magnetic switches, while the rod end utilizes a female M5x0.8 thread.

Where the Airtac B01-SDA Dedicated Cylinder B01-SDA25X10 Is Used
PCB Edge Guiding
Provides precise 10mm lateral adjustments on conveyor lines handling delicate printed circuit boards without overwhelming the assembly.
Film Sealing Jaws
Actuates small sealing jaws in vertical form-fill-seal equipment where minimal axial length prevents frame interference.
Component Ejection
Pushes lightweight molded plastic parts out of injection molds quickly within a 30-500 mm/s speed range.
Is the Airtac B01-SDA Dedicated Cylinder B01-SDA25X10 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this unit, evaluate your force needs carefully. Stepping down to the SDA20 provides 157.1 N of push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the SDA32 yields 402.1 N at the same pressure. For this 25mm bore, the safe working load is approximately 147 N (about 60% of the 245.4 N figure), allowing a vertical lift of roughly 12.5 kg with a 2:1 margin. To order, confirm the 10mm stroke, M5x0.8 port, female rod thread, and no magnet. Note that a plain cylinder drifts when air is lost; use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if the application requires position holding.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Short-body depth vs. a round-body cylinder
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT)
- ✓ 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 Front/rear covers are riveted — do not dismantle.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac B01-SDA Dedicated Cylinder B01-SDA25X10 FAQ
This double-acting cylinder generates 245.4 N push and 206.2 N pull at 0.5 MPa, increasing to 343.6 N push and 288.6 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum push force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It operates between 0.15-1.0 MPa, with a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa, and functions in temperatures from -20 to +70 C.
The B01- prefix indicates an application-dedicated (customer-specified) variant of the standard SDA25X10, sharing identical mechanical specifications. Instead of an adjustable air cushion, it uses a fixed NBR bumper at each end to absorb end-stop impact; for high-speed operations, you should slow the approach or add an external shock absorber.
