Airtac B52-SDA Non-Copper Ultra-Thin Cylinder B52-SDA40X130
The AirTAC Airtac B52-SDA Non-Copper Ultra-Thin Cylinder B52-SDA40X130 is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (thin) air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 130mm 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.

About the Airtac B52-SDA Non-Copper Ultra-Thin Cylinder B52-SDA40X130
The B52-SDA40X130 is AirTAC's copper-free (copper-prohibited) build of the SDA40X130 compact double-acting cylinder. The leading "B52-" prefix designates this version for lines where copper and copper alloys are not permitted, such as ammonia systems or certain battery and electronics plants. The short riveted body joins barrel, rear cover, piston and rod to minimize axial mounting depth, saving valuable machine footprint where a round-body cylinder simply won't fit.
With a 40mm bore, this unit delivers 628.3 N push and 527.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, rising to 879.6 N push at 0.7 MPa. The 16mm piston rod uses an M8x1.25 female thread (or M14x1.5 male option) and couples directly to the load - but side loads must be avoided on this short compact rod. A fixed NBR bumper at each end decelerates the stroke end; it is not an adjustable cushion, so for high-speed applications add an external shock absorber or slow the approach. The exact material substitutions for the copper-free build should be confirmed with us.

Where the Airtac B52-SDA Non-Copper Ultra-Thin Cylinder B52-SDA40X130 Is Used
Ammonia Handling Line
In an ammonia refrigeration plant, the copper-free B52-SDA40X130 actuates a 3-way divert valve on a 40mm line. Its 628.3 N push at 0.5 MPa moves the valve stem reliably while the copper-prohibited build prevents corrosion from ammonia exposure.
Battery Tab Forming Die
On a lithium-ion cell tab forming press, this 130mm-stroke cylinder drives a forming punch through 0.2mm copper foil. The 879.6 N push at 0.7 MPa provides the force, while the compact body fits the tight die-set envelope where a longer cylinder would collide with the guide pillars.
Electronics Cleanroom Gate
In a semiconductor cleanroom, the B52-SDA40X130 opens a 5kg interlock gate on a chemical wet bench. With a safe working load of about 377 N (60% of the 628.3 N at 0.5 MPa), the 130mm stroke gives full clearance, and the copper-free build avoids contamination in the process area.
Is the Airtac B52-SDA Non-Copper Ultra-Thin Cylinder B52-SDA40X130 the Right Cylinder?
Size this B52-SDA40X130 against its neighbours: the SDA32 delivers 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa if you need less force, while the SDA50 provides 981.7 N push at 0.5 MPa for a step up. For this 40mm bore with 130mm stroke, the port is PT1/8 and the rod is 16mm. A plain cylinder does not hold its load when air is lost or the valve is centred - the piston drifts, and the fixed bumper only decelerates near stroke end. If your application must hold a load without live pressure, add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. This SKU has no piston magnet (no -S suffix), so it cannot take a magnetic switch; choose the -S variant if you need reed or electronic switch sensing. Confirm the copper-free material substitutions with us before ordering.
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.
