The AirTAC AirTAC SDA32X130 Compact Cylinder | 32mm Bore is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (thin) air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 130mm 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 SDA32X130 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 body assembly merges the barrel, rear cover, piston, and rod into a highly shortened package, drastically reducing axial mounting depth where a conventional round-body unit would fail to fit. The internal bore is hard-anodized, and the piston relies on a two-way seal for efficient pneumatic operation.
This specific configuration features a 130 mm stroke, which is the maximum standard stroke available for the 32 mm bore size. It incorporates a fixed NBR bumper at each end to absorb end-stop impact rather than relying on an adjustable air cushion. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet option, it cannot host magnetic reed or electronic switches for position sensing.

Pushes light-to-medium parcels on a distribution line using a 130 mm travel distance, relying on the 402.1 N extend force to reliably redirect boxes at speed.
Provides the outward stroke to eject formed plastic components from a tool cavity, where the short riveted body minimizes interference with the press machinery.
Advances electronic test fixtures along a short linear path, taking advantage of the 12 mm piston rod and hard-anodized bore for smooth, repetitive cycling.
When sizing this actuator, consider stepping down to the SDA25, which provides 245.4 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, or moving up to the SDA40, which yields 628.3 N at the same pressure. Operating at 402.1 N yields a safe working load of roughly 241 N (about 60 percent capacity) and a vertical lift capability of approximately 20.5 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. Keep in mind that a standard double-acting cylinder drifts when air pressure is lost or the valve is centered; the fixed bumper only decelerates the piston near the stroke end and does not function as a locking brake. If your application requires absolute load holding, integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. To order, confirm the 32 mm bore, 130 mm stroke, PT1/8 port, female M6x1.0 rod-end thread, and the absence of a piston magnet.
Quick checklist
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. Operating pressure ranges from 0.15 to 1.0 MPa, proof pressure is 1.5 MPa, and the speed range is 30-500 mm/s.
No, this specific SKU does not include the -S piston magnet, so it cannot trigger reed or electronic switches. You would need the -S variant for position sensing. Additionally, it uses fixed NBR bumpers for end-stop deceleration rather than an adjustable air cushion, so external shock absorbers are recommended for high-energy cycles.
