The AirTAC AirTAC SDA32X150B Compact Cylinder | 32mm Bore is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (thin) air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 150mm 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 SDA32X150B is a double-acting, single-rod compact cylinder engineered for tight axial mounting spaces. It delivers a push force of 402.1 N and a pull force of 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa. Because this 150 mm stroke exceeds the 130 mm standard maximum for the 32 mm bore, it is produced as a non-standard, made-to-order unit.
This specific SKU includes a male M10x1.25 piston rod thread for secure mechanical coupling to your load. The hard-anodized bore operates at speeds from 30 to 500 mm/s. End-stops rely on a fixed NBR bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion, meaning high-energy cycles will require an external shock absorber. Note that this configuration lacks a piston magnet and therefore cannot support position sensing.

Pushes cartons off a sorting line using the 402.1 N extend force, though the 150 mm travel requires external guidance to prevent rod side-loading.
Extracts machined circuit board panels from a fixture, utilizing the male M10x1.25 thread for a threaded tool coupling.
Extends 150 mm to align plastic totes on a palletizer, requiring an external shock absorber to manage the kinetic energy at high speeds.
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. For the current 32 mm bore, the safe working load is approximately 241 N (about 60% of the 402.1 N figure), allowing a vertical lift of roughly 20.5 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. A plain compact cylinder drifts when air pressure is lost or a valve is centered, as the fixed bumper only decelerates the stroke end rather than locking the rod; utilize an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if your application demands strict position holding. To order, confirm the 32 mm bore, 150 mm non-standard stroke, PT1/8 port, and the male M10x1.25 rod thread.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder generates a push force of 402.1 N and a pull force of 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 563 N. The theoretical maximum push force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa, with an operating pressure range of 0.15-1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU does not include the -S piston magnet, so it cannot trigger AirTAC reed or electronic switches. You would need to specify the -S option to enable sensing via the body grooves.
