The AirTAC Airtac B01-SDAJ Special Cylinder B01-SDAJ25X50-50S is a genuine double-acting COMPACT cylinder (Ø25mm bore) whose extend end-position is set by an external M8×1.25 adjustment screw. You can dial the stroke anywhere from 0 to 50 mm on the machine — no shims, no part change.
The B01-SDAJ25X50-50S is a double-acting compact cylinder where the B01- prefix denotes AirTAC's application-dedicated (customer-specified) variant, mechanically identical to the standard SDAJ25X50-50S. Its short riveted body saves axial mounting depth where a round-body or profile cylinder will not fit. An external R (M8x1.25) adjuster screw lets you dial the extend stop from 0 to 50 mm directly on the machine without shims.
Force remains unchanged from a standard SDA of this bore, delivering about 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa. The fixed NBR bumper decelerates the stroke end but is not an adjustable air cushion. Equipped with a built-in piston magnet, this unit supports AirTAC reed or electronic switches for position sensing.

The adjustment screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 50 mm. Force is unchanged from a standard SDA of the same bore. Specifications follow the official AirTAC SDAJ datasheet.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 245 N | 206 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 344 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 50 kgf | |
Force matches a standard SDA of the same bore; the adjuster only sets the stop position, not the area. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction.

Dial the extend stop from 0 to 50 mm during prototype runs to find the exact 147 N safe working contact point without machining new spacers.
Re-set the extend endpoint on-site for different carton depths, relying on the 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa to fold heavy board cleanly.
Limit the downward travel to a precise height for a 12.5 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin, preventing over-travel in tight vertical spaces.
Size this 25 mm bore against its neighbours: step down to SDAJ20 for 157.1 N push at 0.5 MPa, or up to SDAJ32 for 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa. This model yields a safe working load of roughly 147 N (about 60% of the 245.4 N figure) and a vertical lift of approximately 12.5 kg with a 2:1 margin. Choose it when setups demand frequent on-site stroke tuning.
Confirm the 25 mm bore, 50 mm maximum stroke, 50 mm adjust window, M5x0.8 port, -S magnet, and female M5x0.8 rod-end thread. Remember that a plain cylinder does not hold its load on air loss or valve centring; the piston drifts and the bumper only decelerates near the end. For a held load without live pressure, specify an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
This 25 mm bore double-acting cylinder provides 245.4 N push and 206.2 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 343.6 N push and 288.6 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It operates at 30-500 mm/s and accepts 0.15-1.0 MPa air pressure.
The B01- prefix marks this as an application-dedicated (customer-specified) variant of the SDAJ25X50-50S, sharing the exact same physical specs. The -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet for AirTAC reed or electronic switches. The M8x1.25 adjuster screw sets the mechanical stop between 0 and 50 mm but does not function as a mid-stroke lock.
