Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X1000
The AirTAC SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X1000 is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 1000mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its hard-anodized aluminum-profile barrel is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore, and it shares SC-series mounting accessories.

About the Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X1000
The AirTAC SAUD100X1000 is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder. A rod protrudes from both ends, meaning the push and pull output is identical at 3681 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The extruded aluminum barrel keeps the unit shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore. It features a 1/2 inch port, an M20x1.5 rod thread, and adjustable 29 mm cushions at both ends.
The twin rods prevent rotation and provide stable guidance for twin-tool setups. A high-temperature Viton H seal option extends operation up to 150 C. Note this specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG or DMSG sensors.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø100mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3682 N | 3682 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5154 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 751 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 SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X1000 Is Used
Twin-Spindle Machining
Drives two synchronized machining heads simultaneously with equal 3681 N force in both directions, preventing rotational twist during heavy metal cutting.
Heavy Press Lowering
Lowers heavy forming presses with a stable vertical lift capacity of 188 kg, using the dual rods to maintain precise parallel alignment without binding.
Dual Transfer Arms
Powers opposing transfer arms on a packaging conveyor, ensuring perfectly timed part handoffs by moving both tools from a single piston.
Is the Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X1000 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 100 mm bore actuator, consider the neighboring 80 mm option if your application only requires 2268 N of equal force at 0.5 MPa. If you need more power, no larger standard bore exists in this range, as 100 mm provides the maximum 3681 N both ways. Choose this double-rod design when you need strict anti-rotation accuracy, synchronized dual-tool driving, or a rear rod to act as a cam. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, and LB foot styles, matching the AirTAC SC series. Because the stroke is 1000 mm, external guides are strongly recommended to prevent rod bending under side loads. This non-magnet version cannot host position switches.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/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 — same as SC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X1000 FAQ
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, the force is equal in both directions. It outputs 3681 N at 0.5 MPa, 5153 N at 0.7 MPa, and 6626 N at 0.9 MPa. The 1/2 inch port and 29 mm cushions handle the flow needed for these high loads.
No, a plain double-rod cylinder drifts without live air, as the cushions only decelerate near the stroke end. For vertical load holding, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
