The AirTAC SDA80X5SB Compact Cylinder | 80mm Bore is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (thin) air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 5mm 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 SDA80X5SB is a double-acting, single-rod compact cylinder engineered to deliver substantial force within a minimal axial footprint. Utilizing a short riveted body assembly, it saves critical mounting depth where a conventional round-body unit would simply not fit. At 80 mm bore, it generates 2513.3 N of push force and 2267.8 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, with a theoretical maximum output of 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
This specific configuration includes a built-in piston magnet (-S) for direct mounting of AirTAC reed or electronic switches along the body grooves, and a male-thread piston rod (-B) sized at M22x1.5 for secure mechanical load coupling. The unit relies on a fixed NBR bumper at each end to decelerate the stroke, meaning it is not an adjustable air cushion. For high-energy cycles, operators should slow the approach or utilize an external shock absorber.

Applies 2513.3 N of extend force to align heavy injection mold halves, utilizing the 5 mm stroke and male M22x1.5 rod for rigid, short-travel positioning in confined machinery frames.
Knocks out stamped metal components from a die using a rapid 5 mm impact, where the compact riveted body minimizes axial protrusion on the press bed and the PT3/8 port handles high flow.
Drives solid steel dowel pins into automotive assemblies, relying on the 80 mm bore's 513 kgf maximum capability and the integrated magnet for precise end-of-stroke position verification.
When sizing this 80 mm bore actuator, consider stepping down to the SDA63, which provides 1558.6 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, or moving up to the SDA100, which yields 3927 N at the same pressure. To finalize your order, confirm the 80 mm bore, 5 mm stroke, PT3/8 port, required -S magnet, and the -B male M22x1.5 rod thread. Note that a standard cylinder drifts when air pressure is lost or a valve is centered; the fixed bumper only decelerates near the stroke end and does not function as a lock. If your application must hold a load without live pressure, integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
The SDA80X5SB operates on a PT3/8 port and generates 2513.3 N push and 2267.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, push increases to 3518.6 N. The theoretical maximum push force is 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The -B option provides a male M22x1.5 threaded rod end for direct load mounting. The cylinder uses a fixed NBR bumper to decelerate at stroke ends, which is not an adjustable air cushion. For high-speed or high-energy cycles, you should slow the approach speed or add an external shock absorber.
