Airtac PB Pen-type Cylinder PB10X65SCB
The AirTAC Airtac PB Pen-type Cylinder PB10X65SCB is a double-acting pen-size (mini) air cylinder with a Ø10mm bore and 65mm 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 PB10X65SCB
The AirTAC PB10X65SCB is a JIS pen-size, double-acting single-rod mini cylinder engineered for compact, high-frequency motion. It features a slim SUS304 stainless steel barrel and a 4mm piston rod, delivering 39.3N of push force at 0.5MPa. The integrated -S magnet enables position detection using AirTAC reed or electronic switches. Porting is via an M5x0.8 thread.
Equipped with a CB double clevis back cover, this unit accommodates pivoting loads. It relies on a fixed TPU bumper at each end to decelerate the stroke over the final few millimeters. Because the bumper is not adjustable, high-speed cycles with real tooling mass require metering out the exhaust or adding an external shock absorber.

| Series | PB JIS pen-size mini cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø10 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø4 mm |
| Stroke | 65 mm |
| 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 |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 50 – 800 mm/s |
| Cushion | Elastic bumper (both ends) |
| Max standard stroke | Up to 200 mm |
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 PB10X65SCB Is Used
PCB Pick & Place
Drives small vacuum grippers on surface mount machines, using the 39.3N extend force to lift delicate circuit boards without stressing the 4mm rod.
Pouch Sealing Clamp
Actuates a pivoting sealing jaw via the CB double clevis, providing consistent 33N retract tension for thin film packaging lines.
Lab Dispenser Positioning
Moves a micro-valve head over reagent trays in analytical instruments, where the SUS304 body resists humid environments and the compact barrel saves space.
Is the Airtac PB Pen-type Cylinder PB10X65SCB the Right Cylinder?
This 10mm bore generates 39.3N push and 33N pull at 0.5MPa. If you need less force, step down to the 6mm bore (14.2N push); for heavier moves, step up to the 12mm bore (56.5N push). Plan for a safe working load of roughly 24N at 0.5MPa, which translates to lifting about 2kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Keep the thin 4mm rod coaxial to avoid side loading, as it is designed strictly for thrust.
When ordering, confirm the 65mm stroke, M5x0.8 port, the -S piston magnet for sensing, and the CB double clevis pivot mount. Note that a standard PB cylinder will drift and cannot hold a load if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered; a fail-safe application requires an external stop or rod lock.
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 PB10X65SCB FAQ
At 0.5MPa, the push force is 39.3N and the pull force is 33N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.7MPa, push is 55N and pull is 46.2N. The operating pressure range is 0.15-0.7MPa, with a speed of 50-800mm/s.
No, the piston will drift if air is lost or the valve is centered. The fixed TPU bumpers only decelerate the rod near the stroke ends; they do not act as a lock. You must add an external rod lock or mechanical stop for fail-safe load holding.
