About the Airtac B01-SDA Dedicated Cylinder B01-SDA32X40SB
The AirTAC B01-SDA32X40SB is a double-acting single-rod compact cylinder. The B01- prefix marks this as an application-dedicated (customer-specified) variant of the base SDA32X40SB, meaning it is mechanically identical to the standard model but grouped for specific industry builds. It delivers 402.1 N of push force and 345.6 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. Equipped with an -S piston magnet, the body grooves accept AirTAC reed or electronic switches for precise position detection.
This unit features a -B male-thread piston rod end (M10x1.25) for secure load coupling, paired with a 12 mm rod diameter. The short riveted body significantly reduces axial mounting depth compared to round-body cylinders, saving valuable machine footprint. End-stopping is handled by a fixed NBR bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion, which decelerates the piston near stroke end but requires an external shock absorber for high-energy loads.

Where the Airtac B01-SDA Dedicated Cylinder B01-SDA32X40SB Is Used
PCB Router Gantry
Drives the Z-axis plunge on a printed circuit board routing gantry, utilizing the 402.1 N push force and male M10 rod to hold a high-speed spindle securely.
Carton Flap Folder
Actuates the side flap folding arms on a continuous motion cartoner, where the short riveted body saves axial depth within the tight conveyor frame.
Stamping Pin Ejector
Ejects small metal stamping pins from a progressive die bed, relying on the built-in magnet and electronic switch to confirm full retraction before the press cycles.
Is the Airtac B01-SDA Dedicated Cylinder B01-SDA32X40SB the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 32 mm bore, stepping down to the SDA25 yields 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the SDA40 provides 628.3 N. At 0.5 MPa, this cylinder offers a safe working load of roughly 241 N (about 60% of its 402.1 N capacity) and can vertically lift approximately 20.5 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. Confirm your ordering essentials: 32 mm bore, 40 mm stroke, PT1/8 port, -S magnet, and -B male rod thread. Note that a plain compact cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve is centered; the fixed bumper only decelerates near the end of travel and does not act as a lock. To hold a load securely without live pressure, integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
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-SDA32X40SB FAQ
This double-acting cylinder exerts 402.1 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, and 563 N push at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum push is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It operates at 0.15-1.0 MPa with a speed range of 30-500 mm/s.
The B01- prefix designates an application-dedicated (customer-specified) line of the base SDA32X40SB; mechanically, every specification matches the standard cylinder exactly. It does not have an adjustable air cushion. Instead, a fixed NBR bumper absorbs the end stop, so for high-speed or high-energy cycles, you should add an external shock absorber or slow the approach.
