Airtac PSBR Single Acting Square Head Compact Cylinder PSBR8X10U
The AirTAC Airtac PSBR Single Acting Square Head Compact Cylinder PSBR8X10U is a single acting, push type (spring return) pen-size mini cylinder with direct front-cover mounting (M4×0.7 thread). A single air port drives the push stroke on a Ø8mm bore, 10mm stroke; the return spring resets the rod when air is released.

About the Airtac PSBR Single Acting Square Head Compact Cylinder PSBR8X10U
The AirTAC PSBR8X10U is a single-acting push pen cylinder that extends via one M5x0.8 air port and retracts automatically via an internal spring. It supplies 18.7 N of net push at 0.5 MPa, reaching 28.7 N at the 0.7 MPa maximum. If air pressure drops, the spring ensures a fail-safe retracted state.
This slim mini body features a SUS316L stainless barrel and bolts directly to a fixture via the M4x0.7 front-cover thread. A fixed TPU bumper decelerates the stroke near the ends. Plan for a safe working load of about 11 N, which allows a smooth 60 percent margin of the rated 0.5 MPa force.
Airtac PSBR Single Acting Square Head Compact Cylinder PSBR8X10U Technical Specifications

|---|---|
| Series | PSBR JIS pen-size front-mount cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø8 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø4 mm |
| Stroke | 10 mm |
| Acting type | Single acting, push type (spring return) |
| Front-mount thread | M4×0.7 |
| Port size | M5×0.8 |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.2 – 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 (M4×0.7); barrel is SUS316L. Forces below are NET spring-deducted values. Confirm against the product label.
Net Push Force (Ø8mm)
| Pressure | Net push force |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 18.7 N |
| 0.7 MPa (max) | 28.7 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 PSBR8X10U Is Used
Panel Pusher
Uses the direct front mount to push light panels from a jig, relying on the spring to retract safely on air loss.
Part Ejector
Ejects small parts off a conveyor line with 18.7 N net push, while the 90-degree side inlet keeps plumbing flat.
Clamp Release
Briefly pushes a clamp open to free a component, letting the internal spring pull the 4 mm rod back home.
Is the Airtac PSBR Single Acting Square Head Compact Cylinder PSBR8X10U the Right Cylinder?
This 8 mm bore with a 10 mm stroke yields 18.7 N net push at 0.5 MPa. Stepping down to a 6 mm bore gives 10.6 N, while moving up to a 10 mm bore provides 29.8 N. The internal return spring requires at least 0.2 MPa before motion begins. The direct front mount saves space, and the U back cover provides a 90-degree side inlet for flat plumbing.
The thin 4 mm rod is built for coaxial thrust. Over this 10 mm stroke, avoid side loads to prevent rod bending. Confirm your ordering code specifies the correct M4x0.7 front-mount thread and the side-inlet configuration.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Net push force at your working pressure
- ✓ Bolt directly through the front cover (M4×0.7)
- ✓ 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 0.2 – 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 PSBR8X10U FAQ
The net push force is 18.7 N at 0.5 MPa and 28.7 N at the 0.7 MPa maximum. The internal return spring sets a 0.2 MPa minimum pressure before the rod extends.
It mounts directly via an M4x0.7 thread on the front cover, eliminating separate brackets. The barrel is SUS316L stainless steel, suited for damp environments, and a fixed TPU bumper cushions the stroke ends.
