Airtac PBD Pen-shaped Double Rod Cylinder PBD10X200
The AirTAC PBD Pen-shaped Double Rod Cylinder PBD10X200 is a double-acting pen-size mini cylinder with a piston rod protruding from both covers. The twin rods share one piston, giving equal push and pull force, resisting rotation and providing a spare mounting or sensing end on a Ø10mm bore, 200mm stroke.

About the Airtac PBD Pen-shaped Double Rod Cylinder PBD10X200
The AirTAC PBD10X200 is a double-acting, double-rod pen-size mini cylinder featuring a 10mm bore and a 200mm stroke. Because a rod exits both covers sharing one piston, push and pull forces are perfectly equal at 33 N @0.5 MPa. The twin rods resist twist better than a single rod, and the spare end can carry a sensor flag or second tool.
This 200mm stroke exceeds the 100mm standard maximum for this bore, making it a non-standard, made-to-order part. The slim SUS304 stainless body uses an M5x0.8 air port and an M8x1.0 rod-end thread. A fixed TPU bumper at each end decelerates the last few mm of travel.
Airtac PBD Pen-shaped Double Rod Cylinder PBD10X200 Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac PBD Pen-shaped Double Rod Cylinder PBD10X200 |
|---|---|
| Series | PBD JIS pen-size double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø10 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø4 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 200 mm |
| Acting type | Double acting, double rod |
| 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 100 mm |
Both chambers act on the rod-side annular area, so push and pull forces are equal. Piston rod and barrel are stainless steel. Confirm against the product label before installation.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø10mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 33.0 N | 33.0 N |
| 0.7 MPa (max) | 46.2 N | 46.2 N |
Because a rod occupies both chambers, the effective area is identical on each side — push and pull forces match. Values are from the AirTAC thrust table (rod-side / pull column). Size with a friction margin.

Where the Airtac PBD Pen-shaped Double Rod Cylinder PBD10X200 Is Used
Dual-Side Transfer
Moves lightweight parts from one belt to another using both rod ends simultaneously, capitalizing on the symmetric 33N push and pull force.
Symmetric Clamp
Secures a delicate workpiece from opposite sides at once, using the twin rods to resist rotational twist during the clamping action.
Sensor-Flagged Index
Uses the spare rod end to trip an external mechanical flag, indexing a tray precisely without mounting extra hardware to the primary tool.
Is the Airtac PBD Pen-shaped Double Rod Cylinder PBD10X200 the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this model means sizing both ways: the smaller 6mm bore yields 10.6 N @0.5 MPa, while the larger 12mm bore provides 46.7 N @0.5 MPa. This 10mm bore gives 33 N @0.5 MPa (46.2 N @0.7 MPa max) equally in both directions. Ensure your layout provides clearance for both rod ends across the full 200mm travel.
When ordering, confirm the 10mm bore, 200mm non-standard stroke, and mounting choice (LB or FA). Note the thin Ø4mm rod is built for coaxial thrust; over this long 200mm stroke, add an external linear bearing to prevent side load deflection. This unit has no magnet.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Need equal force in both directions
- ✓ Second rod end for a sensor / stop / flag
- ✓ Better anti-rotation than a single rod
- ✓ Magnet (S) for sensors?
- ✓ Clearance for the rod on both ends
- ✓ 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 Leave clearance for the rod at both ends.
- check Keep the load coaxial; avoid side load on the thin rods.
- check Do not dismantle the front or back cover.
- check Fit dust caps to ports during long-term storage.
Airtac PBD Pen-shaped Double Rod Cylinder PBD10X200 FAQ
The push and pull forces are equal at 33 N @0.5 MPa and 46.2 N @0.7 MPa. The maximum operating pressure is 0.7 MPa. It uses an M5x0.8 port.
No, the piston drifts without live pressure. The fixed TPU bumper only decelerates near stroke end; it is not a lock. You need an external stop or rod lock for fail-safe holding.
