Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X100S
The AirTAC SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X100S is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 100mm 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 SAUD100X100S
The AirTAC SAUD100X100S is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder. A 25mm rod exits both ends, meaning push and pull output are identical at 3681N each way at 0.5MPa (5153N at 0.7MPa, 6626N at 0.9MPa). The extruded aluminium barrel is shorter than an ISO 15552 unit of the same 100mm bore.
This -S variant includes a piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. You can mount a sensor cam on the back rod for end-of-stroke signaling. The 1/2in port and 29mm adjustable cushions handle heavy loads.

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 SAUD100X100S Is Used
Twin-Spindle Machining
Drives two opposing machining heads simultaneously with equal 3681N force, keeping the part centered without rotation.
Dual Transfer Pusher
Pushes pallets from either end of a line using both rod faces, ensuring stable movement of heavy 188kg loads.
Cam-Triggered Sorting
Uses the rear protruding rod to trip an external CMSG switch, confirming full extension while the front rod diverts items.
Is the Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X100S the Right Cylinder?
Select this 100mm bore when you need 3681N of equal bidirectional force; step down to the 80mm bore for 2268N, or up if you exceed standard limits. A double rod is the right call for anti-rotation guidance, driving twin tooling, or back-end sensing. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA and LB types, compatible with the AirTAC SC series. The -S magnet supports electronic sensors. For this 100mm stroke, ensure external guides carry side loads to prevent binding.
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 SAUD100X100S FAQ
Because the 25mm rod exits both ends, force is equal in both directions: 3681N at 0.5MPa, 5153N at 0.7MPa, and 6626N at 0.9MPa. It uses a 1/2in port.
No, the 29mm adjustable cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke end. To hold a load on air loss, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
