The AirTAC Airtac SDA Ultra Thin Cylinder SDA32X35 is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (thin) air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 35mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and a riveted short body that saves mounting depth. Sensor slots around the body accept magnetic switches for position sensing.
The AirTAC SDA32X35 is a double-acting single-rod compact cylinder engineered to deliver 402.1 N of push force and 345.6 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. Its riveted assembly merges the barrel, rear cover, piston, and rod into a highly shortened unit, drastically reducing axial mounting depth compared to conventional round-body designs. The 32 mm bore features a hard-anodized inner wall and operates on a PT1/8 port.
This model relies on a fixed NBR bumper at each end to decelerate the stroke, meaning it is not a field-adjustable air cushion. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet option, it cannot host magnetic position sensing. Operating speeds span 30-500 mm/s, and the 12 mm piston rod utilizes a female M6x1.0 thread end for straightforward load coupling.

Provides the 402.1 N push stroke needed to position printed circuit board panels under a drilling head, where the short 35 mm stroke keeps the machine footprint minimal.
Actuates folding mechanisms on packaging lines to close corrugated box flaps, utilizing the 345.6 N retract force to pull the linkage back cleanly within tight axial clearances.
Ejects small stamped metal pins from a die bed, operating at speeds up to 500 mm/s where the fixed NBR bumper absorbs the end-stop impact without requiring external cushions.
Selecting this 32 mm bore provides a theoretical maximum push of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. If your application requires less force, the smaller SDA25 offers 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa; stepping up to the SDA40 yields 628.3 N. A computed safe working load is roughly 241 N (about 60% of the 402.1 N figure), translating to a vertical lift capacity of approximately 20.5 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. When ordering, confirm the 35 mm stroke, PT1/8 port, female rod thread, and no magnet. Note that a standard cylinder drifts when air pressure is lost or the valve is centered—the fixed bumper only slows the piston near the end of travel and does not function as a locking brake, so add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if you must hold a load safely.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 402.1 N and the pull force is 345.6 N. At 0.7 MPa, push is 563 N and pull is 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum push is 82 kgf at the 1.0 MPa operating pressure limit.
No, this specific SKU does not include the -S piston magnet, so it cannot host AirTAC reed or electronic switches. You would need to specify the SDA32X35S variant to enable magnetic position sensing.
