The AirTAC AirTAC SDA80X10B Compact Cylinder | 80mm Bore is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (thin) air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 10mm stroke, PT3/8 air ports and a riveted short body that saves mounting depth. Sensor slots around the body accept magnetic switches for position sensing.
The AirTAC SDA80X10B is a double-acting single-rod compact cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation within a minimal axial envelope. It generates 2513.3 N of push force and 2267.8 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, utilizing a hard-anodized 80 mm bore. The riveted unibody design merges the barrel and covers to drastically reduce mounting depth compared to conventional round-body actuators, saving valuable machine footprint.
This specific SKU features a male M22x1.5 threaded piston rod (Ø25 mm) for robust mechanical coupling to your load. Deceleration at the 10 mm stroke endpoints relies on a fixed NBR bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion, meaning external shock absorbers are advised for high-energy cycles. Note that this configuration omits the piston magnet, so magnetic position sensing is not supported without the -S option.

Drives short-stroke knockout pins in plastic injection molding machines, utilizing the 2513.3 N extend force to break heavy parts from the die cavity.
Actuates heavy-duty back-gauge stops on metal press brakes where the compact riveted body minimizes protrusion into the operator work zone.
Deploys mechanical stops in automated palletizing cells to index heavy loads, relying on the Ø25 mm male M22x1.5 rod for rigid load contact.
When sizing this 80 mm bore actuator, compare its 2513.3 N push at 0.5 MPa against adjacent bores. Stepping down, the SDA63 provides 1558.6 N; stepping up, the SDA100 yields 3927 N. For this model, a safe working load is approximately 1508 N (about 60% of the 0.5 MPa figure), translating to a vertical lift capacity of roughly 128.1 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. Confirm your ordering essentials: 80 mm bore, 10 mm stroke, PT3/8 port, male M22x1.5 rod thread, and no sensor magnet.
Keep in mind that a standard double-acting cylinder drifts when air pressure is lost or the directional valve is centered. The fixed NBR bumper only decelerates the piston near the stroke end and does not function as a locking brake. If your application must maintain position under 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 2513.3 N and the pull force is 2267.8 N. At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 3518.6 N. The theoretical maximum push force is 513 kgf at the 1.0 MPa pressure limit. Operating pressure ranges from 0.15 to 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU does not include a piston magnet, so it cannot support AirTAC reed or electronic switches. You would need the SDA80X10BS variant to utilize the sensor grooves around the body. Additionally, the male M22x1.5 rod thread must be specified when ordering mounting accessories.
