The AirTAC AirTAC SDA63X10H Compact Cylinder | 63mm Bore 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 SDA63X10H is a double-acting, single-rod compact cylinder engineered for tight axial spaces. It generates 1558.6 N of push force and 1401.5 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. This specific SKU utilizes a fluororubber (FKM) seal for enhanced high-temperature and oil resistance, operating reliably across a -20 to +70 C range.
Its riveted body design drastically reduces mounting depth compared to round-body units, making it ideal for short 10mm movements. The bore is hard-anodized for longevity, and the rod end features an M10x1.5 female thread. Deceleration at stroke ends is handled by a fixed NBR bumper, which is not a field-adjustable air cushion.

Thread: PT standard. Related SDA-family variants: SSA (single-acting push), STA (single-acting pull), SDAD (double rod), SDAJ (adjustable stroke), SDAT (duplex), SDAW (duplex-end).
Provides a compact 10mm ejection stroke inside hot mold machinery where the FKM seal withstands ambient radiant heat and the short body saves axial mounting depth.
Delivers 1558.6 N of clamping force to seal heavy-duty flexible packaging, using the fixed NBR bumper to absorb the rapid impact at the end of the short stroke.
Secures machining fixtures with a 20mm piston rod and M10x1.5 female thread, offering robust holding power in confined CNC envelopes without needing a profile cylinder.
When sizing this actuator, evaluate your neighbors: stepping down to the SDA50 yields 981.7 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the SDA80 provides 2513.3 N. For the SDA63X10H, the safe working load is approximately 935 N (about 60% of the 1558.6 N figure), allowing a vertical lift of roughly 79.4 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. Confirm your ordering essentials: 63mm bore, 10mm stroke, PT1/4 port, female rod thread, and FKM seals.
Remember that a standard compact cylinder drifts when air pressure is lost or the valve is centered. The fixed bumper only decelerates the piston near the end of travel; it does not function as a locking brake. If your application must hold a vertical load without live pressure, integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 1558.6 N and the pull force is 1401.5 N. At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 2182.1 N and the pull force is 1962.2 N. The theoretical maximum push force is 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The operating pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa, with a speed range of 30-500 mm/s.
No, this specific SKU does not include a piston magnet, so it cannot be used with reed or electronic switches. You would need to order the -S variant to enable sensing. Additionally, this unit uses a fixed NBR bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion, so external shock absorbers may be required for high-energy loads.
