Airtac SAID32 Double Rod Cylinder SAID32X260
The AirTAC SAID32 Double Rod Cylinder SAID32X260 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 260mm stroke, G1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders at the mounting interface.

About the Airtac SAID32 Double Rod Cylinder SAID32X260
The AirTAC SAID32X260 is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder built to ISO 15552 dimensional standards. Because a carbon steel rod exits both end covers, the annulus area is identical on extend and retract, yielding exactly 345 N of force in each direction at 0.5 MPa. The PT-threaded G1/8 ports supply air to both chambers for standard double-acting operation.
This through-rod geometry lets you mount the primary workpiece on the front end and a position flag or cam on the rear extension. The extruded aluminum barrel features sensor grooves on both sides, allowing you to fit CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches wherever routing is cleanest.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |

| 0.5 MPa | 346 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 484 N | — |

Double-rod model: the rod passes through the rear cover, so both piston faces lose rod area and push is shown at the annular-area value. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

Where the Airtac SAID32 Double Rod Cylinder SAID32X260 Is Used
Symmetric Force Transfer
Drives a transfer carriage where the 345 N extend and retract forces must match perfectly to avoid stressing the linkage during directional changes.
Anti-Rotation Slides
Uses the twin-rod geometry to guide a vertical pick-and-place head, preventing yaw without needing external linear bearings.
Rear-Rod Position Flag
Mounts a cam on the rear rod extension to trigger a DMSE solid-state sensor, confirming stroke completion at the opposite end from the tool.
Is the Airtac SAID32 Double Rod Cylinder SAID32X260 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 32 mm bore when an application requires 345 N of symmetric thrust both ways and anti-rotation guidance. If your mechanism needs less force, stepping down is not an option in the SAID family as 32 mm is the smallest bore; stepping up to a 40 mm bore raises the both-way output to 528 N at 0.5 MPa. A single-rod SAI might suffice if you only need standard push-pull motion, but the SAID32X260 is specified when a rear rod is required for dual-side sensing or driving a secondary mechanism.
This cylinder uses a reduced mounting accessory set (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2) and omits the FB, CA, CB and CR brackets found on single-rod variants. At a 260 mm stroke, the extended rod length increases side-load leverage on the front bearing; use an external guide rail to prevent premature wear. Note that the adjustable air cushions at both ends only decelerate the piston near stroke end and will not hold a load if air pressure is lost.
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 SAID32 Double Rod Cylinder SAID32X260 FAQ
Because the double-rod design has the same effective piston area on both sides, it outputs 345 N in both extend and retract directions at 0.5 MPa, and 621 N at 0.9 MPa.
Yes, it is dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders, but the double-rod body limits brackets to Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1 and TCM2 styles.
