About the Airtac SAID100 Double Rod Cylinder SAID100BX5S
The AirTAC SAID100X5-S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for applications requiring symmetric force and dual-side guidance. Because a stainless SUS304 rod exits both end covers, the effective annulus area is identical on extend and retract, yielding an equal 3681 N of thrust and pull force at 0.5 MPa. This through-rod architecture is ideal for mounting a primary workpiece on the front and a position flag or secondary mechanism on the rear.
Equipped with a magnet (-S) for position sensing, this model supports AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE solid-state switches housed within the dual-side sensor grooves of the extruded aluminum barrel. It features PT tapered port threads, adjustable air cushions at both ends to decelerate the piston near stroke end, and a true ISO 15552 mounting interface for direct drop-in interchangeability.

Where the Airtac SAID100 Double Rod Cylinder SAID100BX5S Is Used
Symmetric Transfer
Equal extend and retract forces ensure perfectly balanced, jerk-free part transfer across automated processing stations.
Anti-Rotation Guide
The twin-rod architecture resists torsional deflection, keeping heavy tooling precisely aligned without external guides.
Rear-Cam Sensing
Mount a cam or DMSE sensor flag on the rear rod end to trigger secondary processes while the front rod performs work.
Is the Airtac SAID100 Double Rod Cylinder SAID100BX5S the Right Cylinder?
Choose the 100 mm bore when a smaller 80 mm bore (2268 N at 0.5 MPa) cannot meet your thrust requirements, or step down if a 63 mm bore (1402 N at 0.5 MPa) suffices. The 5 mm stroke is optimal for short clamping or ejection tasks. A double-rod design is selected over a single-rod SAI when the application demands anti-rotation stability, twin-station actuation, or rear-rod limit sensing.
When specifying a replacement, match the 100 mm bore, 5 mm stroke, PT port threads, and the -S magnet option. Note that SAID supports the Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 mounting set, omitting the FB, CA, CB, and CR variants found on single-rod cylinders. Remember that this cylinder relies on live air pressure to hold its load; if pneumatics are lost, the piston drifts, so integrate an external pilot-operated check valve or explore a BSAID clamp-lock model for fail-safe holding.
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 SAID100BX5S FAQ
Because the double-rod design subtracts the rod area from both piston sides, extend and retract forces are equal. It provides 3681 N at 0.5 MPa, 5153 N at 0.7 MPa, and 6626 N at 0.9 MPa in both directions.
Yes, it is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 and serves as a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 double-rod profile cylinders, utilizing the same mounting footprint and PT tapered ports.
