About the Airtac SDA Ultra Thin Cylinder SDA100X130S
The AirTAC SDA100X130S is a double-acting single-rod compact cylinder engineered for heavy-duty pneumatic automation. It delivers a substantial 3927 N push and 3524.9 N pull force at 0.5 MPa, utilizing a 32 mm piston rod and a PT3/8 air port. The short riveted body design significantly reduces axial mounting depth, saving valuable machine footprint where a conventional round-body or profile cylinder would simply not fit.
This unit includes the -S option for a built-in piston magnet, allowing seamless integration with AirTAC magnetic reed or electronic switches for precise position sensing. End-of-stroke deceleration is handled by a fixed NBR bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion, meaning operators should slow the approach or add an external shock absorber for high-energy loads. The hard-anodized bore and two-way piston seal ensure reliable service across the 30-500 mm/s speed range.

Where the Airtac SDA Ultra Thin Cylinder SDA100X130S Is Used
Injection Mold Ejection
Provides the heavy 3927 N push force required to eject dense plastic parts from large injection molding machinery, capitalizing on the 130 mm stroke to clear the mold bed entirely.
Stamping Press Transfer
Moves heavy metal blanks between die stations in an automotive stamping line, utilizing the compact riveted body to minimize axial space within the transfer rail framework.
Palletized Load Diversion
Actuates a high-capacity diverter arm on a heavy parcel conveyor, using the built-in magnet and electronic switches to confirm full extension before redirecting oversized freight.
Is the Airtac SDA Ultra Thin Cylinder SDA100X130S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this actuator, consider stepping down to the SDA80, which provides 2513.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa if your application requires less energy. The SDA100X130S represents the largest bore in this series, yielding a safe working load of roughly 2356 N (about 60% of its 3927 N capacity) and a vertical lift capability of approximately 200.2 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. To confirm your ordering essentials: specify the 100 mm bore, 130 mm stroke, PT3/8 port, female M18x1.5 rod thread, and the required magnetic sensor option. Note that a plain cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve is centered; the fixed bumper only decelerates the stroke end rather than locking the load, so an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required for position holding.
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 SDA100X130S FAQ
This 100 mm bore double-acting cylinder generates 3927 N push and 3524.9 N pull at 0.5 MPa, and 5497.8 N push at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum push force is 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa, with a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa.
No, it relies on a fixed NBR bumper at each end to decelerate the stroke. This bumper is not an adjustable air cushion and does not function as a lock or brake, so external shock absorbers are recommended for high-speed operations.
