The AirTAC Airtac PB Pen-type Cylinder PB10X75SULB 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 PB10X75SULB is a JIS pen-size double-acting mini cylinder engineered for compact, high-frequency motion. It supplies 39.3 N of push and 33 N of pull at 0.5 MPa, driven through an M5x0.8 port. The SUS304 stainless barrel and piston rod provide reliable durability in damp or mildly corrosive environments, while the slim round body saves critical space on light end-of-arm tooling.
This configuration includes a built-in piston magnet for position sensing with AirTAC reed or electronic switches. It features a U-type 90-degree side air inlet for flat plumbing routing and an LB mounting bracket for secure body attachment. The 4 mm rod has an M8x1.0 end thread, and end-of-stroke deceleration relies on fixed TPU bumpers at both ends.

|---|---|---|
| 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.

Drives small vacuum cups on a pick-and-place head to lift delicate printed circuit boards, utilizing the lightweight pen-size profile to reduce robotic arm inertia.
Pushes lightweight pharmaceutical blister packs into secondary cartoning chutes, where the 39.3 N push force at 0.5 MPa easily overcomes minor guide friction.
Precisely strokes a micro-valve on an automated liquid dispensing station, with the U-type side inlet keeping pneumatic tubing flat against the machine frame.
When sizing this 10 mm bore actuator, consider stepping down to the 6 mm version if your payload is light, which provides 14.2 N of push at 0.5 MPa. If your jig requires more thrust, stepping up to the 12 mm bore yields 56.5 N at the same pressure. For this 75 mm stroke, plan for a safe working load of roughly 24 N—about 60 percent of the theoretical 0.5 MPa force—to account for seal friction and smooth travel. This equates to lifting about 2 kg vertically with a sane 2:1 margin.
Keep in mind the thin 4 mm rod is designed strictly for coaxial thrust; over this 75 mm extension, any off-axis load warrants an external linear bearing to prevent binding. Note that a standard PB body does not hold its position if air pressure drops or the valve is centered—the piston will drift, and the fixed bumper only decelerates near the stroke end. For fail-safe holding, an external rod lock is required. Confirm your ordering essentials: 10 mm bore, 75 mm stroke, M5x0.8 port, S magnet, U inlet, and LB mount.
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 is 55 N and the pull is 46.2 N. The operating pressure range is 0.15-0.7 MPa, with a speed range of 50-800 mm/s.
It uses fixed TPU bumpers at both ends to decelerate the piston over the last few millimeters; these are not adjustable, so high-speed cycles with heavy tooling may require metering the exhaust or adding an external shock absorber. The built-in S magnet allows position detection using either AirTAC reed or electronic switches.
