The AirTAC Airtac SDA Ultra Thin Cylinder SDA63X10 is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (thin) air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 10mm stroke, PT1/4 air ports and a riveted short body that saves mounting depth. Sensor slots around the body accept magnetic switches for position sensing.
The AirTAC SDA63X10 is a double-acting single-rod compact cylinder engineered for tight axial spaces, delivering a robust 1558.6 N push force at 0.5 MPa. Its riveted assembly merges the barrel, rear cover, piston, and rod to drastically reduce overall length compared to conventional round-body units. The 63 mm bore features a hard-anodized inner wall and a two-way piston seal for reliable service life.
This specific configuration uses a 10 mm stroke with a 20 mm piston rod and PT1/4 port. End-stop energy is managed strictly by a fixed NBR bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion, meaning high-speed approaches may require external shock absorption. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet option, it cannot host reed or electronic switches for position sensing.

Provides high-force 10 mm ejection strokes on small injection molding platens where machine footprint restricts the use of longer profile cylinders.
Secures upper press brake tooling rapidly using 1558.6 N of extend force, fitting into the narrow vertical gaps of the clamping beam.
Drives a short 10 mm riveting stroke in automated assembly lines, applying concentrated impact force without consuming excessive axial Z-axis height.
When sizing this unit, evaluate your force margins carefully. Stepping down, the SDA50 provides 981.7 N of push at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to the SDA80 yields 2513.3 N at the same pressure. For this 63 mm bore, the safe working load is approximately 935 N (about 60% of the 0.5 MPa figure), translating to a vertical lift capacity of roughly 79.4 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. Confirm your ordering essentials: 63 mm bore, 10 mm stroke, PT1/4 port, female M10x1.5 rod thread, and no sensor magnet. If the application must hold a load vertically during air loss or valve centering, note that the piston will drift; an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required since the fixed bumper only decelerates near the stroke end.
Quick checklist
This 63 mm bore double-acting cylinder generates 1558.6 N push and 1401.5 N pull at 0.5 MPa, increasing to 2182.1 N push and 1962.2 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum push force is 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It operates between 0.15-1.0 MPa, with a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa, and supports a speed range of 30-500 mm/s.
No, end-of-stroke energy is absorbed solely by a fixed NBR bumper, which is not field-adjustable and acts only to decelerate the piston, not lock the load. Additionally, this specific SKU lacks the -S piston magnet, so it cannot accommodate reed or electronic switches; you would need the SDA63X10S variant for position sensing.
