Model Code Explained

Code	Meaning for This Model
SDAW	double-acting, two-stage multi-position cylinder with opposed output rods
40	40 mm bore
X6	6 mm nominal stroke 1
X116	116 mm stroke 2
Blank magnetic position	No magnetic piston selected by the standard order-code position
B	male-threaded rod end
Blank mounting suffix	No optional mounting bracket selected
Blank pipe-thread suffix	Metric connection at the small bores; PT is the standard pipe-thread option where a pipe port is used

Configuration Notes

The specified 6 mm stroke is not a listed standard stroke. The catalog permits intermediate strokes using the next larger standard body envelope.

Technical Specifications

Parameter	Details
Action	double-acting, two-stage multi-position cylinder with opposed output rods
Working medium	Air filtered through a 40 μm filter or finer
Operating pressure	0.15–1 MPa
Proof pressure	1.5 MPa; a proof-test rating, not the continuous operating limit
Ambient and fluid temperature	−20 to 70 °C
Piston speed	30–500 mm/s
Stroke tolerance	+1.0 / 0 mm up to 100 mm stroke; +1.5 / 0 mm above 100 mm
Cushioning	Bumper
Air connection	PT 1/8

Product Features

The body/rear-cover and piston/rod connections use a compact riveted construction.
The rolled and hard-anodized bore provides wear resistance.
The compact double-lip piston seal retains lubricant; switch grooves run around the body.

Dimensions for This Bore and Configuration

Dimensions are in millimeters unless a thread, angle or tolerance is stated. Letter labels follow the 148–153 printed-page drawings in the 2022 Chinese catalog. A base letter value is not automatically an overall length; use its stated stroke relationship.

Stroke-dependent Drawing Relationships

Parameter	Details
A outline	A + stroke 1 + stroke 2
AC outline	AC + stroke 1 + stroke 2
Left AD outline	AD + stroke 2
Right AD outline	AD + stroke 1
Stroke used in the order code	6 mm
Second stroke	116 mm

The two stage strokes and their sum must satisfy the ordering limits. These are the catalog drawing relationships, not a dimensional certification of an out-of-range code.

For this intermediate stroke, the table uses the next larger standard body: 10 mm. Drawing formulas remain those of the catalog; do not infer a shorter body by interpolation.

Construction and Materials

Parameter	Details
1 Rear cover	Aluminum alloy
2 Bumper	NBR
3 Piston	Aluminum alloy
4 Piston seal	NBR
5 Piston rod	Hard-chrome-plated S45C steel
6 Body	Aluminum alloy
7 Front cover	Aluminum alloy
8 O-ring	NBR
9 C-ring	Spring steel
10 Rod seal	NBR
11 Hex nut	Carbon steel
12 Bushing	Wear-resistant material

Item numbers identify the catalog sectional drawing. They are component references, not spare-part order codes or package quantities.

Matching Accessories and Mounting

Parameter	Details
Cylinder mounting	Use the mounting holes and dimensions shown for this body and action type. No unrelated compact-cylinder bracket is established as interchangeable by this chapter.
Magnetic switch condition	This code does not select a magnetic piston. A magnetic switch cannot provide piston-position sensing on a non-magnetic cylinder.

Accessory codes are listed for selection. Optional brackets, rod joints and switches are separate items unless the selected code or the stated pin note expressly identifies them. Component item numbers do not specify purchase quantities.

Stroke and Option Selection

Parameter	Details
Standard strokes for this bore/action	5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 100, 110, 120, 130 mm
Intermediate strokes	The catalog allows a nonstandard intermediate stroke with the outer dimensions of the next larger standard stroke; this does not extend the maximum allowable stroke.
Magnetic selection	Select the magnetic option before ordering a position switch; electrical type, cable and connector are selected separately.

Selection, Installation and Operation

Select bore from the required thrust and available pressure; then check stroke, load direction, mounting, cushioning and sensing. The general catalog load-factor references are at most 0.7 for static/slow work and at most 0.5 for 50–500 mm/s motion. They do not replace the load and guide checks for this cylinder.
Keep the piston rod and load aligned. Support lateral or eccentric loads with an appropriate guide; avoid applying bending force or tightening torque through the rod or guide.
Use clean filtered air. Prevent freezing, water, dust and corrosive substances from entering the cylinder. The cylinder is prelubricated; if lubrication is introduced, use additive-free ISO VG32 oil and continue that lubrication.
Start with the speed controller restricted, then open it gradually. Choose the circuit and flow-control direction for the action and load; a double-acting meter-out circuit is a general reference, not a guarantee of equal speed or precise stopping.
Isolate the air and electrical supplies and release trapped pressure before maintenance. Check the mounting and retained parts before repressurizing. A C-ring must be fully seated before operation.

Circuit Selection Reference at 500 mm/s

Parameter	Details
Reference bore	40 mm
Effective flow area at the reference speed	3.3 mm²
Tube outside / inside diameter	8 / 5 mm
Example speed controller	PTL01
Example silencer	BSL01
Example solenoid valves	5V11006 / 5V12006
Example air-piloted valves	4A11006 / 4A12006

The general 2022 selection table gives these circuit examples for this bore at a theoretical 500 mm/s reference speed. They are not included accessories, a guaranteed achieved speed, or a statement that every example screws directly into this cylinder. Match the actual port thread, action, tubing, valve capacity and operating conditions.

Weight Reference

Estimated reference weight: 1040 g. Based on the same family/bore catalog mass data and the stated configuration; it is not an AirTAC published weight for this exact variant or a measured weight.
