About the Airtac SAID100 Double Rod Cylinder SAID100AX55S
The AirTAC SAID100X55-S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 100mm bore and 55mm stroke. Because the twin rods occupy both sides of the piston, the effective annulus area is identical in each direction, yielding a balanced thrust of 3681 N both ways at 0.5 MPa. A rod exits both end covers, enabling dual-side workpiece mounting or rear-cam actuation.
This specific configuration includes a -S magnet for position sensing and utilizes a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance. It features PT tapered port threads (G1/2) and shares the standard extruded aluminum barrel with sensor switch grooves on both sides for flexible CMSE or DMSE switch mounting.

Where the Airtac SAID100 Double Rod Cylinder SAID100AX55S Is Used
Symmetric Force Transfer
Ideal for transferring parts between two stations where the equal 3681 N extend and retract forces ensure consistent, balanced actuation on both strokes.
Anti-Rotation Slides
The twin-rod design naturally resists torsional deflection, keeping guided loads perfectly aligned without requiring external linear bearings.
Through-Rod Sensing
Mount the primary workpiece on the front rod while using the rear rod end to trigger a CMSE reed or DMSE solid-state sensor for dual-end confirmation.
Is the Airtac SAID100 Double Rod Cylinder SAID100AX55S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 100mm bore double-rod actuator when an application demands equal push and pull forces alongside superior anti-rotation guidance. If your mechanism requires less thrust, stepping down to the 80mm bore yields 2268 N both ways at 0.5 MPa. Conversely, larger loads would necessitate the 125mm variant. The SAID design is favored over a single-rod SAI when a rear rod end is needed to drive a secondary mechanism or mount a position flag.
This model uses the reduced SAID mounting set (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2), omitting the FB, CA, CB, and CR brackets found on single-rod variants. Remember that the adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke end; they do not hold a load. If position holding without live air pressure is required, consider an external rod lock or the BSAID clamp-lock series. At 55mm stroke, side-load bending is minimal, but always ensure the load is guided externally for optimal bearing life.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SAID100 Double Rod Cylinder SAID100AX55S FAQ
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, the effective piston area is the same on both sides. It delivers an equal push and pull force of 3681 N at 0.5 MPa, 5153 N at 0.7 MPa, and 6626 N at 0.9 MPa.
Yes, it is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 as a drop-in replacement. It accepts Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 mounts, though it omits the FB, CA, CB, and CR brackets used on single-rod versions.
