The AirTAC Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X30 is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 30mm 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 SAUD100X30 is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder. A 25mm rod exits both ends, meaning push and pull forces are equal at 3681 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The extruded aluminum profile keeps the unit shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same 100mm bore.
A high-temperature Viton H seal option extends operation to 150 C. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG or DMSG sensors.

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.

Related SAU-family variants: SAUD (double rod), SAUJ (adjustable stroke), SAUF (with built-in solenoid valve), and SAU-S with built-in magnet. Seals: TPU (blank) / Viton H / NBR N. Sensor switches: CMSG / DMSG / EMSG.
Drives two synchronized forming tools from opposite rod ends to double output without adding a second actuator.
Pushes a lane guide from either side to re-route heavy pallets with equal 3681 N force in both directions.
Uses the dual rods to prevent mechanical rotation when elevating wide fixtures in compact assembly cells.
Choose this 100mm bore when you need 3681 N of equal bidirectional force. If you need less power, the 80mm bore delivers 2268 N. If you need more, no larger standard bore exists in this series. A double rod is ideal for anti-rotation guidance or driving twin tools. Mounting uses SC-series FA or LB brackets. Since this non-magnetic SKU cannot carry a switch, mount external sensors if needed. For any stroke over 300mm, add external guide rails to prevent side-load wear.
Quick checklist
The force is equal both ways: 3681 N at 0.5 MPa, 5153 N at 0.7 MPa, and 6626 N at 0.9 MPa. It never outputs a larger single-rod push value.
No. The air cushions only decelerate near stroke end; they do not lock. For load holding on air loss, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
