About the Airtac SDA Ultra Thin Cylinder SDA32X10
The AirTAC SDA32X10 is a double-acting single-rod compact cylinder engineered for tight axial spaces. It delivers 402.1 N of push force and 345.6 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, operating within a 30-500 mm/s speed range. The hard-anodized 32 mm bore pairs with a 12 mm piston rod, providing robust actuation in a minimal footprint.
This model features a PT1/8 port and a fixed NBR bumper at each end to decelerate the stroke end. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet option, it cannot host magnetic switches. The riveted body design significantly reduces overall length compared to round-body alternatives, making it ideal for shallow mounting envelopes.

Where the Airtac SDA Ultra Thin Cylinder SDA32X10 Is Used
PCB Router Clamping
Secures printed circuit boards during routing operations where the 402.1 N force prevents shifting and the 10 mm stroke fits within shallow machine envelopes.
Carton Flap Folding
Pivots small cardboard flaps on packaging lines, utilizing the short 10 mm stroke for rapid cycling without consuming excessive axial depth.
Press Die Ejection
Ejects small stamped metal parts from shallow dies, relying on the 32 mm bore and fixed NBR bumpers to absorb end-of-stroke impact.
Is the Airtac SDA Ultra Thin Cylinder SDA32X10 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this actuator, note that a safe working load is approximately 241 N (about 60% of the 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa), allowing a vertical lift of roughly 20.5 kg with a 2:1 margin. If you need less force, the SDA25 provides 245.4 N at 0.5 MPa; for heavier demands, the SDA40 steps up to 628.3 N. Remember that a plain cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve is centered—the fixed bumper only decelerates near the stroke end, so an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required to hold a load. To order, confirm the 32 mm bore, 10 mm stroke, PT1/8 port, female M6x1.0 rod thread, and no magnet.
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 SDA32X10 FAQ
This 32 mm bore double-acting cylinder provides 402.1 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 563 N push and 483.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum push of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The operating pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU does not include the -S piston magnet, so it cannot host reed or electronic switches. You would need the -S variant for position sensing. Additionally, it uses fixed NBR bumpers rather than adjustable air cushions.
