About the Airtac B01-SDA Dedicated Cylinder B01-SDA50X10
The AirTAC B01-SDA50X10 is a double-acting single-rod compact cylinder. The leading B01- prefix marks this as an application-dedicated (customer-specified) variant of the base SDA50X10, meaning it is mechanically identical to the standard model but grouped for specific customer builds. It delivers a push force of 981.7 N and a pull force of 824.7 N at 0.5 MPa. A hard-anodized bore and two-way piston seal ensure durable service.
The short riveted body design significantly reduces axial mounting depth compared to round-body units, making it ideal for tight machine footprints. This specific SKU lacks a piston magnet and therefore cannot support magnetic sensing. End-of-stroke deceleration is handled by a fixed NBR bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion.

Where the Airtac B01-SDA Dedicated Cylinder B01-SDA50X10 Is Used
Short-Stroke Ejector
Pops finished aluminum castings out of a molding die using a rapid 10mm stroke, leveraging the 981.7 N push force to break the part free.
Flap Folding Arm
Folds corrugated carton flaps on a continuous packaging line where the compact riveted body prevents interference with adjacent conveyor rails.
Press Pin Insertion
Presses dowel pins into machined aluminum fixtures, utilizing the rigid 20mm piston rod to maintain alignment during the brief 10mm extension.
Is the Airtac B01-SDA Dedicated Cylinder B01-SDA50X10 the Right Cylinder?
This 50mm bore generates 981.7 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. If you need less force, stepping down to the SDA40 yields 628.3 N, while stepping up to the SDA63 provides 1558.6 N. For this 10mm stroke, the theoretical safe working load is roughly 589 N (about 60% of the 0.5 MPa figure), translating to a vertical lift capacity of approximately 50 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. When ordering, confirm the 50mm bore, 10mm stroke, PT1/4 port, and the female M10x1.5 rod-end thread. Because this SKU has no S magnet, it cannot accept position sensors. Note that a plain double-acting cylinder drifts if air pressure is lost; holding a suspended load requires an external rod lock or 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-SDA50X10 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 981.7 N and the pull force is 824.7 N. At 0.7 MPa, push is 1374.4 N and pull is 1154.5 N. The theoretical maximum push force is 200 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 simply denotes an application-dedicated (customer-specified) variant of the SDA50X10; mechanically, the bore, port, and force are identical. It does not have an adjustable air cushion. Instead, a fixed NBR bumper absorbs impact at the stroke end. For high-energy cycles, you should add an external shock absorber.
