Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X10S
The AirTAC SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X10S is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 10mm 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 SAUD100X10S
The AirTAC SAUD100X10S is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder. A rod protrudes from both ends, meaning the push and pull forces are identical at 3681 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The extruded hard-anodized aluminum barrel keeps the unit shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same 100mm bore. It features a 1/2" port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and 29mm adjustable air cushions at both ends.
Because the -S suffix denotes a built-in magnet, this model directly supports CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You can also mount a sensor cam on the back rod. For high-temperature environments up to 150 C, specify the Viton H seal option.

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 SAUD100X10S Is Used
Twin-Tool Stamping
Drives two synchronized forming tools from a single piston, ensuring perfectly balanced impact force of 3681 N on both the advance and retract strokes.
Anti-Rotation Diverter
Uses the dual-rod geometry to prevent mechanical twist during rapid product diversion on a packaging line, eliminating the need for external guide rails.
Cam-Actuated Gating
Uses the extended rear rod to physically trip an external mechanical switch or carry a CMSG sensor cam in tight spaces where front-side sensing is impossible.
Is the Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X10S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 100mm bore if your application requires substantial equal bidirectional force. If you need less thrust, the 80mm bore provides 2268 N both ways at 0.5 MPa; if you need more, verify the 100mm is your maximum available standard size. A double-rod design is the right call for anti-rotation guidance, driving twin tooling, or rear-end sensing. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, and LB foot styles, matching the AirTAC SC series. Since the stroke is only 10mm, side-load risks are minimal, but always ensure rigid guidance for heavy 100mm payloads. The -S magnet allows precise end-of-stroke detection.
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 SAUD100X10S FAQ
The force is equal in both directions because it is a double-rod cylinder. It outputs 3681 N at 0.5 MPa, 5153 N at 0.7 MPa, and 6626 N at 0.9 MPa. The 1/2" port and 29mm cushions handle the resulting flow and deceleration.
No, a plain double-rod cylinder will drift without live air pressure, as the cushions only decelerate near the stroke end. For secure load holding, you must install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
