The AirTAC Airtac B52-SDA Non-Copper Ultra-Thin Cylinder B52-SDA32X75SB is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (thin) air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 75mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and a riveted short body that saves mounting depth. Sensor slots around the body accept magnetic switches for position sensing.
The B52-SDA32X75SB is AirTAC's copper-free (copper-prohibited) build of the SDA32X75SB compact cylinder, designed for lines where copper and copper alloys are not permitted, such as ammonia systems or certain battery and chemical plants. The B52- prefix signals this material restriction, though the exact substituted parts and grades should be confirmed with us. This double-acting single-rod cylinder delivers 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa from its 32 mm bore, with a 12 mm piston rod.
The short riveted body saves axial mounting depth where a round-body cylinder will not fit, making it ideal for tight machine footprints. Its fixed NBR bumper decelerates the stroke end but is not field-adjustable, so high-speed applications need an external shock absorber. The -S magnet enables reed or electronic switch mounting in the body grooves, while the -B suffix specifies a male M10x1.25 rod thread for direct load coupling.

In battery cell assembly, the 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa drives a forming die to crease copper tabs. The copper-free build avoids contamination risks, and the compact body fits between guide rails where a round cylinder would not.
For a refrigeration component test stand, this cylinder actuates a sealing clamp on ammonia lines. The copper-free construction prevents corrosion reactions, while the 75 mm stroke allows clearance for part loading and unloading.
In a PCB enclosure assembly line, the cylinder pushes a locating pin into a housing. The 345.6 N retract force at 0.5 MPa pulls the pin clear, and the male M10x1.25 rod couples directly to the pin holder without an adapter.
Step down to the SDA25 bore for 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa if your load allows, or step up to the SDA40 for 628.3 N push at 0.5 MPa when you need more margin. The 75 mm stroke is within the 130 mm maximum standard for this bore, so no custom build is required. Remember a plain cylinder does not hold its load on air loss-the piston drifts, and the bumper only decelerates near stroke end. For a held load, add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. Order with bore 32, stroke 75, PT1/8 port, -S magnet, and male rod thread.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, push is 402.1 N and pull is 345.6 N. At 0.7 MPa, push rises to 563 N and pull to 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum push is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
B52- marks AirTAC's copper-free (copper-prohibited) build of the SDA32X75SB, for lines where copper alloys are banned-confirm exact material substitutions with us. The fixed NBR bumper at each end decelerates the stroke end but is not an adjustable cushion or a lock; add an external shock absorber for high-speed impacts.
