Airtac SSA Single-Acting Compact Cylinder SSA63X10
The AirTAC Airtac SSA Single-Acting Compact Cylinder SSA63X10 is a genuine single-acting COMPACT cylinder (single acting, push type) with a Ø63mm bore and 10mm stroke. Air pushes the rod and an internal spring returns it, so one solenoid line drives the motion — ideal for short-stroke clamping and ejection in tight spaces.

About the Airtac SSA Single-Acting Compact Cylinder SSA63X10
The AirTAC SSA63X10 is a single-acting push-type compact cylinder where air extends the rod and an internal spring retracts it. It delivers 1382.6 N of net push at 0.5 MPa, with the return spring force already subtracted from the raw air force. This makes it a highly reliable actuator for short-stroke heavy-duty positioning.
The short riveted body saves axial mounting depth where a round-body or profile cylinder will not fit. Because it requires only one air line and one solenoid port to drive the motion, you reduce fitting complexity and valve costs. A fixed NBR bumper decelerates the stroke end, absorbing shock without relying on adjustable cushions.
Airtac SSA Single-Acting Compact Cylinder SSA63X10 Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac SSA Single-Acting Compact Cylinder SSA63X10 |
|---|---|
| Series | SSA compact single-acting cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø63 mm |
| Stroke | 10 mm |
| Acting type | Single acting, push type |
| Port size | PT1/4 |
| Rod end thread | M10×1.5 female / M18×1.5 male (B) |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.2 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 50 – 500 mm/s |
| Cushion | Fixed NBR bumper |
| Max standard stroke | Up to 30 mm |
Specifications follow the official AirTAC SDA-family datasheet. Single-acting types start at 0.2 MPa (the spring must be overcome). Confirm against the product label before installation.
Net Output Force (Ø63mm, Push)
| Pressure | Push force (net) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 1383 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 2006 N |
These are NET output forces — the return-spring force is already deducted. Single-acting push only; the spring performs the opposite stroke. Size with a safety margin.

| SSA | Compact single acting, push type cylinder series. |
|---|---|
| 63 | Bore size in mm. |

Thread: PT standard. SSA pushes out / spring returns; STA pulls in / spring extends. Related: SDA (double acting), SDAD (double rod), SDAJ (adjustable stroke).
Where the Airtac SSA Single-Acting Compact Cylinder SSA63X10 Is Used
Heavy Stamping Ejector
Uses the 1382.6 N net push to eject thick metal blanks from a press die in a confined tooling space.
Pallet Load Stopper
Deploys the 10 mm stroke quickly to halt heavy inbound pallets on a conveyor before a wrapping station.
Bearing Press Fit
Applies steady force to seat large industrial bearings into housings without needing a tall cylinder footprint.
Is the Airtac SSA Single-Acting Compact Cylinder SSA63X10 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this model, consider the adjacent bore: the SSA50 provides 874.7 N of net push at 0.5 MPa, while this 63 mm unit steps up to 1382.6 N. Based on the 0.5 MPa figure, the safe working load is approximately 830 N (about 60 percent of capacity), allowing a vertical lift of roughly 70.5 kg with a 2:1 margin. Standard strokes top out at 30 mm, and this 10 mm version is standard.
This configuration features a 63 mm bore, a 10 mm stroke, a PT1/4 port, a female M10x1.5 rod-end thread, and a 20 mm piston rod. Because this SKU lacks the S option, it has no piston magnet and cannot accept a magnetic switch. Remember that on air loss the spring drives the rod back to rest; it does not hold a mid-stroke load.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Net push force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke ≤ 30 mm (single-acting limit)
- ✓ Single air line saves a valve/port
- ✓ Magnet (S) for sensors?
- ✓ Female (blank) or male (B) rod thread
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.2 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Remember the spring performs the return stroke.
- check Avoid side load on the short piston rod.
- check Front/rear covers are riveted — do not dismantle.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SSA Single-Acting Compact Cylinder SSA63X10 FAQ
The net push force is 1382.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 2006.1 N at 0.7 MPa. These values already account for the internal return spring resistance.
No, this specific SKU does not include the S option for a piston magnet, so it cannot accept reed or electronic switches. You would need the SSA63X10S variant for position sensing.
