Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X270S
The AirTAC Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X270S is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 270mm 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 SAUD100X270S
The AirTAC SAUD100X270S is a double-acting profile-type cylinder featuring a 100mm bore and 270mm stroke. Because a rod protrudes from both ends, the push and pull forces are identical, delivering 3681 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The extruded aluminum barrel keeps the unit shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same size, and the 1/2 inch port handles high flow.
This unit includes the S option, meaning it has a built-in piston magnet ready for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. A high-temperature Viton H seal option can extend operation up to 150 C.

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 SAUD100X270S Is Used
Twin-Tool Machining
Drives two opposing machining heads simultaneously with equal 3681 N force, ensuring perfectly balanced material removal.
Dual-End Transfer
Pushes a product onto one conveyor while retracting a return arm on the opposite side, synchronizing two actions in one stroke.
Is the Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X270S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 100mm bore when your application demands 3681 N of force in both directions. If you need less power, the 80mm bore provides 2268 N both ways; if you require more, verify the maximum pressure constraints of your system. The double-rod design is ideal for anti-rotation guidance, driving twin tooling, or mounting a sensor cam on the back rod. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, and LB foot styles, matching the AirTAC SC series. With a 270mm stroke, external load guides are recommended to prevent side-loading wear on the seals.
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 SAUD100X270S FAQ
The force is equal in both directions due to the double-rod design. 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 ensures adequate airflow for these high forces.
No, a plain SAUD cylinder does not hold a load without live air; the adjustable 29 mm cushions only decelerate near stroke end. For a held vertical load, you must install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
