About the Airtac SAID32 Double Rod Cylinder SAID32X260S
The AirTAC SAID32X260-S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 32mm bore and 260mm stroke. Because a rod exits both end covers, the annulus area is identical on extend and retract, yielding exactly 483 N of force in each direction at 0.7 MPa. The integrated -S magnet enables position tracking with AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE solid-state switches.
This through-rod architecture lets you mount the primary workpiece on the front end while attaching a cam, position flag, or secondary mechanism to the rear rod. The extruded aluminum barrel includes dual sensor grooves, and the standard carbon steel rod handles daily cycling reliably. It uses a G1/8 port and adjustable air cushions at both ends to smooth out stroke transitions.

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

| 0.5 MPa | 346 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 484 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 70 kgf | |
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 SAID32X260S Is Used
Symmetric Force Transfer
Drives a shuttle mechanism where the equal 483 N extend and retract forces at 0.7 MPa ensure consistent timing in both directions without pressure compensation.
Anti-Rotation Slides
Guides a vertical pick-and-place head using the twin-rod structure to prevent torsional twist that a single-rod cylinder would allow during rapid 30-800 mm/s cycling.
Dual-Side Actuation
Mounts the primary gripper on the front rod end and a mechanical cam on the rear protrusion to trigger a physical limit switch at mid-stroke.
Is the Airtac SAID32 Double Rod Cylinder SAID32X260S the Right Cylinder?
Select this 32mm bore when an application demands equal push and pull forces alongside anti-rotation guidance. If you need higher thrust, stepping up to the 40mm bore raises the both-way output to 528 N at 0.5 MPa. If lower force is acceptable, dropping to a smaller bore reduces physical footprint. Compared to a single-rod SAI, this double-rod design prevents torsional twist on the load. Remember that the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end; it does not lock or hold the load. If your process loses air pressure and must prevent drifting, use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
At 260mm of stroke, the unsupported rod length increases the risk of side-load bending at the rod bearing. For this configuration, incorporating an external guide rail is recommended to support the load and prevent premature wear. This cylinder is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, using a PT tapered port thread and the standard SAID mounting set (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2), which omits the FB, CA, CB, and CR brackets found on single-rod variants.

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 SAID32X260S FAQ
Because the double-rod design subtracts the rod area from both sides of the piston, the force is identical in both directions. It provides 345 N at 0.5 MPa, 483 N at 0.7 MPa, and 621 N at 0.9 MPa for both extend and retract strokes.
Yes, the SAID32X260-S is a profile-type extruded aluminum cylinder built to ISO 15552 mounting dimensions, making it a direct replacement for other ISO 15552 double-rod cylinders. It uses a PT G1/8 port and supports AirTAC CMSE and DMSE sensors via its integrated magnet.
