About the Airtac B01-SDA Dedicated Cylinder B01-SDA63X50S
The AirTAC B01-SDA63X50S 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 SDA63X50S. It delivers a robust 1558.6 N push and 1401.5 N pull at 0.5 MPa, operating via a PT1/4 port. The short riveted body significantly reduces axial mounting depth compared to round-body units, saving valuable machine footprint.
This unit includes a built-in piston magnet (-S) for direct mounting of AirTAC reed or electronic switches along the body grooves. End-stopping relies on a fixed NBR bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion, effectively decelerating the 30-500 mm/s travel speed near stroke end. The 20 mm piston rod features an M10x1.5 female thread, providing a solid load interface for high-duty cycles.

Where the Airtac B01-SDA Dedicated Cylinder B01-SDA63X50S Is Used
Injection Mold Ejection
Drives ejection plates in plastic injection molding machines where the short riveted body minimizes axial interference behind the mold platen.
Pallet Flap Folding
Folds corrugated carton flaps on high-speed packaging lines, utilizing the 1558.6 N extend force to cleanly overcome cardboard stiffness.
Press Brake Gauging
Positions back-gauge fingers on metal press brakes, handling heavy steel sheets with a safe working load near 935 N during alignment.
Is the Airtac B01-SDA Dedicated Cylinder B01-SDA63X50S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 63 mm bore, step down to the SDA50 which yields 981.7 N push, or step up to the SDA80 providing 2513.3 N push at 0.5 MPa. For this specific configuration, the safe working load calculates to roughly 935 N (about 60% of the 1558.6 N capacity), allowing a vertical lift of approximately 79.4 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. To order, confirm the 63 mm bore, 50 mm stroke, PT1/4 port, female rod thread, and the required magnetic switch option.
Remember that a plain compact cylinder does not hold its load if air pressure drops or the valve is centered; the piston will drift. The fixed NBR bumper only decelerates the motion near the stroke end and acts neither as a lock nor a brake. If your application must hold a load 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-SDA63X50S FAQ
This 63 mm bore double-acting cylinder generates 1558.6 N push and 1401.5 N pull at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa it yields 2182.1 N push and 1962.2 N pull. The theoretical maximum push is 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure spans 0.15-1.0 MPa with a speed range of 30-500 mm/s.
The B01- prefix simply designates an application-dedicated (customer-specified) variant of the base SDA63X50S, meaning all physical specs remain identical to the standard model. It does not have adjustable air cushions; instead it uses a fixed NBR bumper at each end to decelerate the stroke. For high-energy cycles, add an external shock absorber.
