The AirTAC Airtac PB Pen-type Cylinder PB10X115SR is a double-acting pen-size (mini) air cylinder with a Ø10mm bore and 115mm stroke. Its slim round barrel and back cover are stainless steel, the M5×0.8 ports keep plumbing compact, and the fast, low-friction piston suits high-cycle small-part handling.
The AirTAC PB10X115SR is a double-acting JIS pen-size mini cylinder engineered for compact, high-frequency small-part motion. It features a slim SUS304 stainless steel barrel and piston rod, providing excellent durability in damp or mildly corrosive environments without adding unnecessary bulk to your jig. Delivering 39.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it occupies a practical middle ground for light assembly tooling.
This specific configuration includes an R axial air inlet for in-line plumbing and a built-in piston magnet (-S) for position sensing. The bore dictates an M5x0.8 port and an M8x1.0 rod-end thread. Because it uses a fixed TPU bumper at each end rather than an adjustable air cushion, you should meter-out the exhaust or add an external shock absorber when cycling real tooling mass at higher speeds.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC PB pen-size datasheet. Piston rod and barrel are stainless steel. Confirm bore, stroke and back-cover option against the product label before installation.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 39.3 N | 33.0 N |
| 0.7 MPa (max) | 55.0 N | 46.2 N |
Values are taken from the AirTAC PB thrust table. Because pull acts on the rod-side annular area, pull force is always lower than push. Actual usable force is reduced by friction — size with a margin.

Actuates a light cutting blade on an electronics assembly line, where the slim stainless body resists flux fumes and fits within dense routing machinery.
Pushes small parcels laterally on a logistics belt, utilizing the 115mm stroke and R axial inlet to keep pneumatic plumbing perfectly in-line with the conveyor frame.
Ejects vials from a testing carousel, relying on the built-in magnet to trigger an electronic switch for precise position confirmation before the next cycle.
When sizing this actuator, plan for a safe working load of roughly 24 N at 0.5 MPa, which accounts for seal friction and smooth travel. For vertical lifts, this equates to hoisting about 2 kg with a sane 2:1 safety margin. If your application requires slightly less force, the Ø6 bore offers 14.2 N of push at 0.5 MPa; stepping up to the Ø12 bore yields 56.5 N for heavier tooling.
Keep in mind that a plain PB-type cylinder does not hold its load if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered—the piston will drift, and the bumper only decelerates near the stroke end. For fail-safe holding, an external stop or rod lock is required. To order, confirm the 10mm bore, 115mm stroke, M5x0.8 port, S magnet, and R axial inlet.
Quick checklist
This double-acting single-rod cylinder generates 39.3 N push and 33 N pull at 0.5 MPa. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.7 MPa, it yields 55 N push and 46.2 N pull. It operates between 0.15-0.7 MPa at speeds of 50-800 mm/s.
The Ø4 mm rod is designed strictly for coaxial thrust. Over long strokes or with off-axis loads, you must add an external guide or linear bearing to prevent binding, as the thin rod cannot handle lateral forces.
