Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X290S
The AirTAC Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X290S is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 290mm 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 SAUD100X290S
The AirTAC SAUD100X290S is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder. A 25mm rod exits both ends of the hard-anodized aluminum extruded barrel, meaning both faces use the rod-side piston area. This yields exactly 3681 N of thrust and pull at 0.5 MPa, climbing to 5153 N at 0.7 MPa and 6626 N at 0.9 MPa. The unit carries a built-in magnet for position sensing.
This 100mm bore, 290mm stroke design is shorter than an ISO 15552 unit of the same size, yet offers superior non-rotating accuracy via its twin rods. The 1/2 inch port drives the 30-800 mm/s speed range.

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 SAUD100X290S Is Used
Twin-Tool Stamping
Drives two synchronized forming tools from one piston, ensuring parallel impact without rotational twist on the workpiece.
Dual-End Diverting
Uses the protruding back rod to trip a mechanical flag while the front rod pushes a product lane diverter simultaneously.
Vertical Lift Stops
Raises and lowers heavy pallet stops with equal force both ways, preventing gravity-biased drift during descent.
Is the Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X290S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 100mm bore if your application demands 3681 N of equal push and pull force at 0.5 MPa. Stepping down, the 80mm bore provides 2268 N both ways, while there is no larger standard SAUD bore. The double-rod architecture is ideal for anti-rotation guidance, driving twin tools, or mounting a switch cam on the back rod. It supports basic, FA flange, and LB foot mounts compatible with the AirTAC SC series. The -S suffix enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. Because the 290mm stroke exceeds 300mm side-load thresholds, use external guide rails to prevent rod 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 SAUD100X290S FAQ
Because the 25mm rod exits both ends, the force is equal in both directions: 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 this 100mm bore unit.
No. The adjustable 29mm air cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke end; they do not lock. For load holding on air loss, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
