The AirTAC SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X175 is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 175mm 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.
The AirTAC SAUD100X175 is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder. A 25mm rod protrudes from both ends of the hard-anodized aluminum extruded barrel, meaning both faces use the rod-side piston area. This yields equal push and pull force of 3681 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The unit is notably shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same 100mm bore.
Because the rods exit both ends, you can mount twin tooling or a switch cam on the back rod without losing stroke length. This specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG or DMSG sensors. For high-heat duties up to 150 C, specify the Viton H seal option.

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.

Drives two opposing machining heads simultaneously with identical 3681 N force, ensuring perfectly synchronized cutting cycles.
Pushes a workpiece from one belt to another using both rod ends, maintaining balanced momentum without twisting the load.
Lifts heavy pallets straight up using a central fixture, where the dual rods prevent saddle rotation during vertical travel.
Choose this 100mm bore if your application demands high bidirectional force and strict anti-rotation guidance. Stepping down to the 80mm bore drops the equal force to 2268 N at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up is unavailable as 100mm is the largest SAUD size. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, and LB foot styles, matching only the AirTAC SC series footprint. Since this is a non-magnetized SKU, you cannot install reed switches. At 175mm stroke, side loads are minimal, but always use external guide rails for any stroke over 300mm to prevent rod binding.
Quick checklist
The force is equal both ways because of the double-rod design. It provides 3681 N at 0.5 MPa, 5153 N at 0.7 MPa, and 6626 N at 0.9 MPa. The 1/2 inch port feeds both chambers equally to maintain this balanced output.
No, a plain double-rod cylinder drifts without live air; the 29mm adjustable cushions only decelerate near stroke end. For suspended loads, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
