About the Airtac B01-SDA Dedicated Cylinder B01-SDA32X5B
The AirTAC B01-SDA32X5B is a double-acting, single-rod compact cylinder. The leading "B01-" prefix designates an application-dedicated (customer-specified) variant of the base SDA32X5B, meaning it is mechanically identical to the standard model. It features a 32 mm bore and a 5 mm stroke, generating 402.1 N of push force and 345.6 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. This makes it well-suited for high-force, short-travel clamping tasks.
The riveted body design significantly reduces axial mounting depth compared to round-body cylinders, saving valuable machine footprint. This specific SKU includes a male M10x1.25 piston rod thread for robust load coupling and uses a PT1/8 air port. It does not include a piston magnet, so it cannot support magnetic sensing. End-stopping is handled by a fixed NBR bumper, which decelerates the piston near stroke end but is not an adjustable air cushion.

Where the Airtac B01-SDA Dedicated Cylinder B01-SDA32X5B Is Used
PCB Router Clamping
Secures printed circuit board panels during routing operations, using the 5 mm stroke to quickly lock parts in place against the 402.1 N push force.
Stamping Pin Ejection
Drives a short-stroke pin to eject small metal stampings from a progressive die, utilizing the male M10x1.25 rod end for secure tooling attachment.
Sensor Block Positioning
Moves a testing probe block precisely into contact with an assembly, taking advantage of the minimal axial length to fit within a dense test fixture.
Is the Airtac B01-SDA Dedicated Cylinder B01-SDA32X5B the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this actuator, evaluate your force requirements carefully. Stepping down to an SDA25 provides 245.4 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to an SDA40 yields 628.3 N at the same pressure. For the B01-SDA32X5B, the theoretical safe working load is approximately 241 N (about 60% of the 402.1 N figure at 0.5 MPa), translating to a vertical lift capacity of roughly 20.5 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. Ensure your ordering essentials match this configuration: 32 mm bore, 5 mm stroke, PT1/8 port, no magnet, and male M10x1.25 rod thread. Note that a plain compact cylinder does not hold its load if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered; the piston will drift, and the fixed bumper only decelerates it near the stroke end. For applications requiring position holding, an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required.
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-SDA32X5B FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 402.1 N and the pull force is 345.6 N. At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 563 N and the pull force is 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum push force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The operating pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa, with a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa.
The B01- prefix indicates this is an application-dedicated (customer-specified) variant of the standard SDA32X5B, sharing the exact same mechanical specifications. It does not have an adjustable air cushion; instead, it uses a fixed NBR bumper at each end to decelerate the stroke. For high-speed or high-energy cycles, you should add an external shock absorber or slow the approach speed.
