About the Airtac SAID32 Double Rod Cylinder SAID32X500
The AirTAC SAID32X500 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 32mm bore and 500mm stroke. Because a carbon steel rod exits both end covers, the annulus area is identical on each side, yielding exactly 483 N of thrust and pull force at 0.7 MPa. This symmetry ensures stable, equal velocity in both directions.
The rear rod extension is perfect for mounting a position flag or driving a secondary mechanism, while the extruded aluminum barrel provides sensor grooves on both sides. Without a magnet specified, it operates mechanically, but you can add an -S magnet later for CMSE reed or DMSE electronic solid-state switches.

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 SAID32X500 Is Used
Twin-Station Actuation
Drives two separate mechanisms simultaneously from one piston, utilizing the equal force and speed from both rod ends for perfectly synchronized transfer.
Anti-Rotation Slides
The dual-rod geometry resists torsional twisting better than a single rod, keeping guided loads perfectly straight across the 500mm travel.
Through-Rod Sensing
Mounts a cam or limit flag on the rear rod protrusion to trigger external sensors, providing precise end-of-stroke confirmation without blocking the primary work area.
Is the Airtac SAID32 Double Rod Cylinder SAID32X500 the Right Cylinder?
Select this 32mm bore when an application demands anti-rotation guidance or dual-side actuation that a single-rod SAI cannot provide. If your project requires less force, stepping down is not an option below 32mm, but stepping up to a 40mm bore raises the bidirectional output to 739 N at 0.7 MPa. For this 500mm stroke, the extended unsupported length increases rod-bearing bending risks; always use an external guide to prevent premature wear.
As a dimensionally interchangeable direct replacement for other ISO 15552 double-rod cylinders, it uses PT tapered ports and supports Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 mounts (omitting FB/CA/CB/CR). Note that the adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke end; they do not hold a load. If pressure drops, the piston drifts, so use a SAIL lock or external pilot-operated check valve for position 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 SAID32 Double Rod Cylinder SAID32X500 FAQ
Because the double-rod design occupies piston area on both sides, the extend and retract forces are identical. It provides 345 N at 0.5 MPa, 483 N at 0.7 MPa, and 621 N at 0.9 MPa in both directions.
Yes, it is a true ISO 15552 profile cylinder, making it dimensionally interchangeable with other ISO 15552 double-rod cylinders. Just ensure your mounting accessory falls within the SAID supported set: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2.
