Airtac PB Pen-type Cylinder PB10X150SCB
The AirTAC Airtac PB Pen-type Cylinder PB10X150SCB is a double-acting pen-size (mini) air cylinder with a Ø10mm bore and 150mm 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.

About the Airtac PB Pen-type Cylinder PB10X150SCB
The AirTAC PB10X150SCB is a double-acting JIS pen-size mini cylinder engineered for compact, high-frequency motion. It features a slim SUS304 stainless steel round barrel and piston rod, offering excellent durability in damp or mildly corrosive environments while saving valuable space on end-of-arm tooling. Delivering 39.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this 10 mm bore unit is built for rapid small-part handling.
This 150 mm stroke configuration includes a built-in piston magnet (-S) for position sensing using AirTAC reed or electronic switches. The CB double clevis back cover accommodates pivoting loads, and the body uses M5x0.8 air ports. Because the rod is only 4 mm thick, maintaining coaxial alignment is critical over this extended stroke to prevent side-loading damage.

| Acting type | Double acting |
| Port size | M5×0.8 |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.15 – 0.7 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.2 MPa |

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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø10mm)
| 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.

Where the Airtac PB Pen-type Cylinder PB10X150SCB Is Used
PCB Depanelling Ejection
Uses the 39.3 N extend force to push singulated circuit boards out of a routing fixture, where the slim barrel avoids obstructing the cutting head.
Pouch Flap Folding
Actuates a lightweight pivoting arm driven by the CB clevis to tuck carton flaps on a packaging line at speeds up to 800 mm/s.
Is the Airtac PB Pen-type Cylinder PB10X150SCB the Right Cylinder?
If you need to step down, the Ø6 bore provides 14.2 N push at 0.5 MPa; stepping up to the Ø12 bore yields 56.5 N. A plain double-acting cylinder like this drifts when air is lost or the valve is centered, so an external rod lock is required for fail-safe holding. Confirm your ordering essentials: 10 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, M5x0.8 port, S magnet, and CB clevis.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Slim pen body vs. a standard round cylinder
- ✓ Back cover: CB / U / R inlet direction
- ✓ Magnet (S) for sensors?
- ✓ Mounting: LB / FA / CJ or front thread
- ✓ Keep the load coaxial — avoid side load
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 0.7 MPa operating pressure.
- check Keep the load coaxial; avoid side load on the thin rod.
- check Do not dismantle the front or back cover.
- check Fit dust caps to ports during long-term storage.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac PB Pen-type Cylinder PB10X150SCB FAQ
At 0.5 MPa this 10 mm bore cylinder provides 39.3 N push and 33 N pull. 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.
It uses a fixed TPU bumper at each end that decelerates the piston over the last few millimeters; it is not adjustable, so meter-out the exhaust or add an external shock absorber for heavy high-speed loads. The CB back cover is a double clevis designed for pivoting mount configurations.
