About the Airtac SDA Ultra Thin Cylinder SDA100X100H
The AirTAC SDA100X100H is a double-acting, single-rod compact cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation within a minimal axial envelope. Utilizing a riveted assembly, it conserves machine footprint while delivering a substantial 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa. The -H designation indicates fluororubber (FKM) seals, providing elevated thermal and oil resistance compared to standard NBR.
This 100mm bore unit features a robust 32mm piston rod and PT3/8 ports. Rather than a field-adjustable air cushion, it relies on a fixed NBR bumper at each stroke end to absorb impact. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet code, it cannot directly host AirTAC reed or electronic switches.

Where the Airtac SDA Ultra Thin Cylinder SDA100X100H Is Used
Stamping Press Ejection
Ejects heavy formed metal panels from progressive stamping dies, utilizing the 3927 N extend force to overcome material friction in high-temperature environments.
Palletizer Lift Station
Raises lowerator forks carrying loaded pallets, where the FKM seals withstand ambient heat from nearby shrink-wrap tunnels and the compact body saves vertical space.
Heavy Gauge Bending
Acts as a rugged back-gauge or holding clamp in thick-plate bending machinery, providing stable resistance against deflection during hydraulic press cycles.
Is the Airtac SDA Ultra Thin Cylinder SDA100X100H the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this model requires evaluating your force margins and spatial constraints. If 3927 N of push at 0.5 MPa is excessive, the neighboring SDA80 offers 2513.3 N, stepping down the footprint significantly. Conversely, the 100mm bore represents the maximum standard SDA size, yielding a theoretical maximum push of 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Based on the 0.5 MPa output, the safe working load is roughly 2356 N (about 60% capacity), translating to a vertical lift capability of approximately 200.2 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.
Ensure you specify the 100mm bore, 100mm stroke, PT3/8 porting, and the FKM seal option for your RFQ. Remember that a standard compact cylinder drifts when air pressure is lost or the valve is centered; the fixed bumper only decelerates the piston near stroke end and does not function as a locking brake. To suspend a load safely without live pressure, integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Short-body depth vs. a round-body cylinder
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT)
- ✓ Magnet (S) for sensors?
- ✓ Female (blank) or male (B) rod thread
- ✓ Side load — avoid on a compact rod
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the short piston rod.
- check Very long strokes are unsuitable for the compact body.
- check Front/rear covers are riveted — do not dismantle.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SDA Ultra Thin Cylinder SDA100X100H FAQ
This 100mm bore double-acting cylinder provides a push force of 3927 N and a pull force of 3524.9 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, the push increases to 5497.8 N. The theoretical maximum push force is 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU lacks the internal piston magnet. To use AirTAC reed or electronic switches, you must order the -S option. Additionally, this model uses fixed NBR bumpers for end-stop deceleration rather than an adjustable air cushion, so external shock absorbers are recommended for high-speed operations.
