About the Airtac B01-SDA Dedicated Cylinder B01-SDA40X10S
The AirTAC B01-SDA40X10S is a double-acting single-rod compact cylinder. The leading B01- prefix marks this as an application-dedicated (customer-specified) variant, mechanically identical to the standard SDA40X10S. It delivers 628.3 N of push force and 527.8 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. Driven by a 16 mm piston rod, this unit is built for tight spaces.
Its riveted body design drastically reduces axial mounting depth compared to round-body units. The bore is hard-anodized for longevity, and the integrated -S piston magnet supports AirTAC reed or electronic switches via body grooves. End stopping relies on a fixed NBR bumper that decelerates the stroke, not an adjustable air cushion.

Where the Airtac B01-SDA Dedicated Cylinder B01-SDA40X10S Is Used
PCB Edge Pinning
Drives a short 10 mm pin to lock circuit boards during soldering. The 628.3 N push force secures the panel firmly without flexing the substrate.
Carton Flap Tucking
Tucks minor flaps on packaging lines. The compact riveted body fits between conveyor rollers, saving axial space in tight transfer zones.
Pneumatic Ejector
Ejects small stamped metal parts from a die. The 16 mm rod withstands repetitive impacts while the fixed NBR bumper handles the 10 mm stroke end stop.
Is the Airtac B01-SDA Dedicated Cylinder B01-SDA40X10S the Right Cylinder?
This 40 mm bore provides 628.3 N push at 0.5 MPa, yielding a safe working load around 377 N (roughly 60 percent of capacity) and a vertical lift capability of about 32 kg with a 2:1 margin. If you need less force, the SDA32 steps down to 402.1 N at 0.5 MPa. For heavier drives, the SDA50 steps up to 981.7 N at 0.5 MPa. To order, confirm the 10 mm stroke, PT1/8 port, female M8x1.25 rod thread, and the required -S magnet.
Because the fixed NBR bumper only absorbs end impacts, a plain SDA does not hold its load if air pressure drops or the valve centers. The piston will drift. If your application must maintain position without live pressure, install 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-SDA40X10S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 628.3 N and the pull force is 527.8 N. At 0.7 MPa, push is 879.6 N and pull is 738.9 N. The theoretical maximum push is 128 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure ranges from 0.15 to 1.0 MPa, with a speed of 30-500 mm/s.
The B01- prefix denotes an application-dedicated (customer-specified) line of the base SDA40X10S, sharing the exact same physical specs. It does not have an adjustable air cushion; it uses a fixed NBR bumper at each end to decelerate the stroke. For high energy impacts, add an external shock absorber.
