The AirTAC Airtac PB Pen-type Cylinder PB10X75R is a double-acting pen-size (mini) air cylinder with a Ø10mm bore and 75mm 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 PB10X75R 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, offering reliable durability in damp or mildly corrosive environments. Delivering 39.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it uses an M5x0.8 port and an M8x1.0 rod-end thread to drive light tooling.
This 75 mm stroke variant includes an R axial air inlet for straightforward in-line plumbing. To manage impact energy, a fixed TPU bumper sits at each end to decelerate the piston over the final few millimeters. Because the rod is only 4 mm thick, it is built for coaxial thrust rather than side loading, so keeping the load guided ensures smooth travel across the full extension.

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 electronic assembly line, utilizing the 39.3 N push force and 75 mm stroke to separate routed circuit boards cleanly.
Tucks small corrugated flaps on a packaging conveyor, where the compact pen-size body fits neatly between upper guide rails without collision.
Pushes prepared vials out of a testing carousel, relying on the SUS304 stainless construction to withstand frequent wipe-downs and humid laboratory conditions.
When sizing this actuator, plan for a safe working load of about 24 N, which is roughly 60 percent of the 39.3 N theoretical push at 0.5 MPa, leaving margin for seal friction. For vertical lifts, this equates to raising approximately 2 kg safely with a 2:1 factor. If your task requires slightly less force, the neighbouring Ø6 bore provides 14.2 N of push at 0.5 MPa; stepping up to the Ø12 bore yields 56.5 N. Note that a plain PB body does not hold position if air pressure drops or the valve centers, so an external rod lock is needed for fail-safe holding.
To order, confirm the 10 mm bore, 75 mm stroke, M5x0.8 porting, and the R axial inlet configuration. This unit ships without a sensor magnet, so position detection requires external methods. If your tooling mass is high, meter-out the exhaust or add an external shock absorber since the fixed bumpers are not adjustable.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 39.3 N and the pull force is 33 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.7 MPa, the push force is 55 N and the pull force is 46.2 N. The operating pressure range is 0.15-0.7 MPa, with a speed of 50-800 mm/s.
The R designation means it has an axial air inlet for in-line plumbing straight into the back cover. It uses a fixed TPU bumper at each end to decelerate the piston near the stroke limits, but this is not an adjustable air cushion or a locking brake. If operating at high speed with significant tooling mass, you should meter-out the exhaust or add an external shock absorber.
