The AirTAC Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X375 is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 375mm 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 SAUD100X375 is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder. A rod exits both ends, 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 extruded aluminum barrel keeps the unit shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same 100 mm bore.
This SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG or DMSG sensors. With a 375 mm stroke, external guides are recommended to prevent rod bending under side loads. The 1/2 inch port and M20x1.5 rod thread handle robust flow.

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 heads from opposite ends, ensuring perfectly balanced cutting feed without rotational twist.
Pushes a workpiece onto a belt while simultaneously retracting a secondary stopper on the back side for coordinated line indexing.
Lifts heavy pallets vertically using the equal pull force, relying on the twin rods to prevent binding during the 375 mm travel.
When sizing this 100 mm bore, consider the 80 mm option (2268 N both ways at 0.5 MPa) for lighter duty, or step up if you need more than 3681 N. Choose this double-rod configuration when your mechanism requires strict anti-rotation guidance, needs to drive two tools at once, or uses the back rod to trip a mechanical switch. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, and LB foot styles, matching the AirTAC SC series. Because the stroke is 375 mm, always support the load with external linear guides to avoid rod bending. Note this specific SKU has no magnet (-S), so electronic sensing is not supported.
Quick checklist
The force is equal in both directions because both chambers contain a rod. 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 supplies the necessary airflow for this 100 mm bore.
No. The adjustable 29 mm air cushions only decelerate the piston near the stroke ends; they do not lock the position. On air loss, the load will drift. For secure holding, you must add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
