About the Airtac B01-SDA Dedicated Cylinder B01-SDA63X60
The AirTAC B01-SDA63X60 is a double-acting single-rod compact cylinder. The leading B01- prefix marks this as an application-dedicated (customer-specified) variant of the base SDA63X60, meaning it is mechanically identical to the standard line with a 63 mm bore and 60 mm stroke. It delivers a robust 1558.6 N push and 1401.5 N pull at 0.5 MPa, utilizing a hard-anodized bore and a two-way piston seal.
The short riveted body drastically reduces axial mounting depth compared to round-body units, making it highly effective for tight machine footprints. End-stopping relies on a fixed NBR bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion, so high-energy cycles may require an external shock absorber. This specific SKU lacks the S option, meaning it has no piston magnet and cannot host reed or electronic switches.

Where the Airtac B01-SDA Dedicated Cylinder B01-SDA63X60 Is Used
Injection Mold Ejection
Drives ejection plates out of tight mold bases where the short riveted body saves valuable axial depth without sacrificing the 1558.6 N extend force needed to free plastic parts.
Corrugated Box Flap Folding
Folds heavy cardboard flaps on automated case erectors, using the 60 mm stroke to clear the packaging path quickly within the 30-500 mm/s speed range.
Palletizer Lift Stops
Acts as a mechanical stop for descending pallet layers in packaging lines, handling the impact via its fixed NBR bumper while providing reliable resistance against drifting loads.
Is the Airtac B01-SDA Dedicated Cylinder B01-SDA63X60 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this unit, stepping down to the SDA50 yields 981.7 N of push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the SDA80 provides 2513.3 N. For this 63 mm bore, the safe working load is approximately 935 N (about 60 percent of the 1558.6 N figure), allowing a vertical lift of roughly 79.4 kg with a 2:1 margin. Keep in mind a plain cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve is centered, as the fixed bumper only decelerates near stroke end rather than locking the load; use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if position holding is required. Confirm your ordering essentials: 63 mm bore, 60 mm stroke, PT1/4 port, female M10x1.5 rod thread, and no magnet.
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-SDA63X60 FAQ
This 63 mm bore cylinder provides 1558.6 N push and 1401.5 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 2182.1 N push and 1962.2 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum push of 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It features a PT1/4 port, a 20 mm rod, female M10x1.5 rod thread, and operates at speeds between 30-500 mm/s.
The B01- prefix simply indicates an application-dedicated (customer-specified) build of the standard SDA63X60, altering no physical specifications. This specific SKU does not include the S option, so it lacks a piston magnet and cannot support reed or electronic switches; you must select the -S variant for position sensing.
