Airtac PBD Pen-shaped Double Rod Cylinder PBD10X35S
The AirTAC PBD Pen-shaped Double Rod Cylinder PBD10X35S 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, 35mm stroke.

About the Airtac PBD Pen-shaped Double Rod Cylinder PBD10X35S
The AirTAC PBD10X35S is a double-acting, double-rod pen-size mini cylinder. A piston rod protrudes from both covers, meaning both chambers act on the same rod-side annular area. This geometry delivers exactly 33 N of push and pull force at 0.5 MPa. The twin rods share a single piston to resist twist better than a single rod, while providing a spare end for a sensor flag or secondary tool.
Built with a SUS304 stainless barrel and a slim 10 mm body, it saves space in tight jigs. The M5x0.8 air port keeps the envelope small. A fixed TPU bumper at each end decelerates the last few mm of travel. This unit includes a built-in piston magnet for position sensing. Because the rod is only Ø4 mm, plan for about 20 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, and add an external linear bearing for any off-axis loads.
Airtac PBD Pen-shaped Double Rod Cylinder PBD10X35S Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac PBD Pen-shaped Double Rod Cylinder PBD10X35S |
|---|---|
| Series | PBD JIS pen-size double-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø10 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø4 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 35 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 PBD10X35S Is Used
Dual-Side Transfer
Push a part 35 mm one way and pull a second part back simultaneously. Equal 33 N force both directions keeps a symmetric transfer jig balanced without requiring separate cylinders.
Sensor-Flagged Index
Mount a flag on the spare rod end to trigger an external sensor. The built-in magnet also works with reed or electronic switches to confirm end-of-stroke position in compact assembly machines.
Symmetric Clamp
Clamp a workpiece from both sides using the twin rods. The shared piston resists rotational twist during clamping, ensuring the tool stays aligned without needing a separate precision guide.
Is the Airtac PBD Pen-shaped Double Rod Cylinder PBD10X35S the Right Cylinder?
Sizing this 10 mm bore involves checking both neighbours. Dropping to a 6 mm bore drops the force to 10.6 N at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to a 12 mm bore yields 46.7 N. This PBD10X35S provides a balanced 33 N both ways, making it ideal for symmetric duty. Remember that both ends require rod clearance across the full 35 mm stroke. Confirm your ordering essentials: 10 mm bore, 35 mm stroke, S magnet, and any LB or FA mount.
The fixed TPU bumper only decelerates the final few mm; above mid speed with real tooling mass, meter-out the exhaust or fit an external shock absorber. A plain cylinder does not hold position on air loss, so use an external stop for fail-safe load holding.
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 PBD10X35S FAQ
It delivers an equal push and pull force of 33 N at 0.5 MPa and 46.2 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.7 MPa. Push equals pull because both chambers act on the same rod-side annular area.
Yes. The spare rod end can carry a sensor flag or external stop without extra hardware. Additionally, the S suffix means a built-in piston magnet is present, allowing you to mount reed or electronic switches directly to the cylinder body.
