Airtac PSBR Single Acting Square Head Compact Cylinder PSBR6X60R
The AirTAC Airtac PSBR Single Acting Square Head Compact Cylinder PSBR6X60R is a single acting, push type (spring return) pen-size mini cylinder with direct front-cover mounting (M3×0.5 thread). A single air port drives the push stroke on a Ø6mm bore, 60mm stroke; the return spring resets the rod when air is released.

About the Airtac PSBR Single Acting Square Head Compact Cylinder PSBR6X60R
The AirTAC PSBR6X60R is a single-acting push, spring-return pen-size mini cylinder. It delivers 10.6 N of net push at 0.5 MPa. The M3x0.5 front-cover thread bolts straight to your fixture, saving space. An M5x0.8 port supplies air, while the R axial inlet keeps plumbing in-line.
Built with a SUS316L stainless barrel, this unit is fail-safe retracted on air loss. A fixed TPU bumper cushions the stroke ends. Plan for a safe working load of about 6 N, which is roughly 60 percent of the rated force. It can also lift about 0.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.
Airtac PSBR Single Acting Square Head Compact Cylinder PSBR6X60R Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac PSBR Single Acting Square Head Compact Cylinder PSBR6X60R |
|---|---|
| Series | PSBR JIS pen-size front-mount cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø6 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø3 mm |
| Stroke | 60 mm |
| Acting type | Single acting, push type (spring return) |
| Front-mount thread | M3×0.5 |
| Port size | M5×0.8 |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.3 – 0.7 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.2 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 50 – 800 mm/s |
| Return | Return spring (push by air) |
| Max standard stroke | Up to 60 mm |
The spring holds the rod retracted; applying air pushes the rod out, and removing air lets the spring return it. Front cover carries the mounting thread (M3×0.5); barrel is SUS316L. Forces below are NET spring-deducted values. Confirm against the product label.
Net Push Force (Ø6mm)
| Pressure | Net push force |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 10.6 N |
| 0.7 MPa (max) | 16.3 N |
These are usable push forces after the return spring is subtracted, from the AirTAC single-acting thrust table. Minimum operating pressure is set by the spring, so this model needs at least the lower pressure shown to move.

Where the Airtac PSBR Single Acting Square Head Compact Cylinder PSBR6X60R Is Used
Micro Part Ejection
Pushes small molded components out of a tight cavity. The spring return retracts the rod automatically when air stops.
Panel Pusher
Acts as a compact diverter for lightweight circuit boards. The direct front mount threads directly into the machine subplate.
Lab Valve Actuation
Cycles a small fluid valve in damp environments. The SUS316L barrel resists corrosion while the R inlet keeps plumbing neat.
Is the Airtac PSBR Single Acting Square Head Compact Cylinder PSBR6X60R the Right Cylinder?
This 6mm bore model provides 10.6 N net push at 0.5 MPa and 16.3 N at 0.7 MPa. Stepping up to the 8mm bore yields 18.7 N at 0.5 MPa if you need more force. The internal return spring requires a minimum 0.3 MPa to move the rod. At 60mm stroke, the slim Ø3 mm piston rod needs an external guide or linear bearing to prevent side-load binding.
The direct front-cover mount eliminates brackets. Confirm your M3x0.5 bolt engagement. The R back cover provides an axial air inlet. This configuration ships without a sensor magnet.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Net push force at your working pressure
- ✓ Bolt directly through the front cover (M3×0.5)
- ✓ Only one air line / solenoid needed
- ✓ Fail-safe retract on air loss
- ✓ Magnet (S) for sensors?
- ✓ Stroke ≤ 60 mm (single-acting limit)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.3 – 0.7 MPa operating pressure.
- check Allow for spring force in the stroke direction.
- check Match bolt size and engagement to the front thread.
- check Do not add an external return mechanism.
- check Keep the load coaxial; avoid side load on the thin rod.
Airtac PSBR Single Acting Square Head Compact Cylinder PSBR6X60R FAQ
It provides 10.6 N net push at 0.5 MPa and 16.3 N at 0.7 MPa. The internal spring sets a 0.3 MPa minimum pressure before the rod moves. If air loss occurs, the spring holds the rod fail-safe retracted.
It mounts directly via an M3x0.5 front-cover thread. The barrel is SUS316L stainless steel. This specific model has no sensor magnet and uses an R axial back cover inlet.
