The AirTAC Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X325 is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 325mm 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 SAUD100X325 is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder. A rod exits both ends, meaning both faces use the rod-side piston area. This yields identical push and pull thrust of 3681 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The extruded aluminium profile barrel keeps the unit shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore.
This SKU has no internal magnet (-S omitted), so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG magnetic switches. The 1/2" port feeds the chamber, while the dual M20x1.5 rod ends drive twin tooling. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss; the 29 mm adjustable cushions only decelerate near stroke end, so fit an external rod lock for holding.

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 synchronized machining spindles from one piston, ensuring perfectly matched feed rates via the dual rods.
Pushes parts from opposite sides of a conveyor simultaneously, using the equal bidirectional force to index items evenly.
Lifts platens vertically without drift or rotation, relying on the matched 3681 N thrust and rigid double-rod guidance.
Select this 100 mm bore if your task demands equal 3681 N thrust in both directions and anti-rotation stability. Sizing down, the 80 mm bore provides 2268 N each way. Sizing up is unavailable as 100 mm is the maximum. The dual rods prevent twist and carry a sensor cam on the back end, though this specific non-magnet SKU cannot host switches. Mounting uses SC-series FA flange or LB foot brackets. Because the 325 mm stroke exceeds 300 mm, add external guide rails to prevent rod bending under side loads. For high heat up to 150 C, specify the Viton H seal option.
Quick checklist
Because the double rod occupies area on both faces, the thrust 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" port supplies air to achieve these figures.
No. This specific SKU lacks the internal magnet (-S option), so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You must use external mechanical or proximity sensors for end-of-stroke detection.
