About the Airtac SDA Ultra Thin Cylinder SDA100X130B
The AirTAC SDA100X130B is a double-acting, single-rod compact cylinder engineered to deliver substantial force within a minimal axial footprint. By utilizing a riveted assembly that integrates the barrel, rear cover, piston, and rod, this unit achieves an overall length unattainable by conventional round-body designs. At 100 mm bore, it generates 3927 N of push force and 3524.9 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, peaking at a theoretical 801 kgf under 1.0 MPa. This specific SKU features a male M26x1.5 threaded piston rod end for robust mechanical coupling to your load.
Deceleration at stroke extremes is handled by a fixed NBR bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion, meaning operators cannot tune the end-stop impact externally. Because this configuration omits the -S magnet code, it lacks a piston magnet and cannot support AirTAC reed or electronic switches for position sensing. The 32 mm piston rod operates at speeds between 30 and 500 mm/s, fed by PT3/8 ports. For applications involving high kinetic energy, supplementing the fixed bumper with an external shock absorber is advised to prevent premature wear.

Where the Airtac SDA Ultra Thin Cylinder SDA100X130B Is Used
Stamping Press Ejection
Provides the robust 3927 N push force required to eject heavy formed metal panels from a stamping die, utilizing the 130 mm stroke to clear the press bed completely.
Palletizer Lift Station
Raises lowerator forks handling loaded shipping pallets, where the male M26x1.5 rod end secures heavy mechanical linkages and the compact body conserves vertical machinery space.
Injection Mold Separation
Drives the separation of large injection molding tooling halves, applying up to 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa to break the vacuum friction of molded plastic parts prior to robotic extraction.
Is the Airtac SDA Ultra Thin Cylinder SDA100X130B the Right Cylinder?
If your application requires less force, the neighboring SDA80 bore offers 2513.3 N of push at 0.5 MPa; as the largest standard size, stepping up beyond 100 mm would require exploring alternative non-compact profiles. When ordering, confirm the 130 mm stroke, PT3/8 porting, and the -B male M26x1.5 rod thread.
A critical mechanical constraint is that a standard double-acting cylinder does not inherently hold its position when air pressure is lost or the directional valve is centered. The piston will drift, and the fixed NBR bumper only decelerates the rod near the stroke extremes rather than locking it in place. If your machinery must maintain a load under pressure loss, integrating an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve is required.
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 SDA100X130B FAQ
This 100 mm bore double-acting cylinder generates 3927 N push and 3524.9 N pull at 0.5 MPa, increasing to 5497.8 N push and 4934.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum push force is 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It operates within a pressure range of 0.15-1.0 MPa, a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa, and speeds of 30-500 mm/s.
No. This model uses a fixed NBR bumper at each end to decelerate the stroke, which is not an adjustable air cushion. Additionally, because this SKU lacks the -S option, it has no piston magnet and cannot support AirTAC reed or electronic switches. For high-speed operations, you should add an external shock absorber.
