About the Airtac SDA Ultra Thin Cylinder SDA100X130SB
The AirTAC SDA100X130SB is a double-acting, single-rod compact cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation within a minimal axial footprint. Utilizing a riveted body assembly, it conserves valuable machine space while delivering a robust 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa. This specific configuration includes a built-in piston magnet and a male-thread piston rod.
The 100 mm bore features a hard-anodized inner wall and a 32 mm piston rod. End-stop deceleration is managed by a fixed NBR bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion, meaning external shock absorbers should be added for high-energy cycles. The integrated magnet supports position detection via an AirTAC reed or electronic switch mounted in the body grooves.

Where the Airtac SDA Ultra Thin Cylinder SDA100X130SB Is Used
Automotive Stamping Press
Drives heavy blanking and forming dies on automotive stamping lines where the 5497.8 N extend force at 0.7 MPa handles high-resistance metal deformation.
Plastic Injection Unloading
Ejects large molded plastic parts from injection molding machines, using the 32 mm male-threaded rod to securely attach heavy-duty gripper assemblies.
Palletizer Lift Station
Raises and lowers heavy product layers in end-of-line palletizing equipment, benefiting from the short riveted body to minimize vertical machine height.
Is the Airtac SDA Ultra Thin Cylinder SDA100X130SB the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 100 mm bore yields a safe working load of roughly 2356 N (about 60% of the 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa) and a vertical lift capacity of approximately 200.2 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. If your application requires less force, the SDA80 provides 2513.3 N at 0.5 MPa; as the largest standard bore, stepping up beyond 100 mm requires a different cylinder series. When ordering, confirm the 130 mm stroke, PT3/8 porting, the -S magnet, and the -B male M26x1.5 rod thread. Remember that a plain compact cylinder drifts when air pressure is lost or the valve is centered—the fixed bumper only decelerates near stroke end and does not function as a locking brake, so add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if the load must be held.
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 SDA100X130SB FAQ
This 100 mm bore double-acting cylinder generates 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. The 130 mm stroke is the maximum standard stroke available for this bore size.
It relies on a fixed NBR bumper at each end to decelerate the piston, which is not an adjustable air cushion; for high-speed cycles, you should add external shock absorbers. Additionally, it does not hold position naturally—if air is lost, the piston drifts, so an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required to suspend a load safely.
