The AirTAC Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X65S is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 65mm 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 SAUD100X65S is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder. A rod protrudes from both ends, meaning the push and pull output is identical at 3681 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The extruded aluminum barrel is noticeably shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same 100 mm bore. It features a 1/2 inch port, an M20x1.5 rod thread, and 29 mm adjustable air cushions at both ends.
This unit includes the -S piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. The twin-rod geometry provides anti-rotation guidance and lets you mount a sensor cam on the back rod. For high-heat environments up to 150 C, specify the Viton H seal option.

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 machining heads from one piston, ensuring perfectly balanced cutting forces without rotational twist.
Powers opposing transfer arms that move parts simultaneously across a conveyor belt, utilizing the equal push and pull output.
Lifts heavy palletizing jigs straight up and down, relying on the 188 kg vertical lift capacity and inherent anti-rotation stability.
Choose this 100 mm bore if your application requires 3681 N of equal bidirectional force. Sizing down, the 80 mm bore yields 2268 N each way. Sizing up is not possible as 100 mm is the largest in the series. A double-rod design is the right call when you need non-rotating accuracy, twin tooling, or back-end switch actuation. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, and LB foot styles, matching the AirTAC SC series. Because this 65 mm stroke is short, side-load issues are minimal, but always guide external loads to prevent binding. The -S magnet enables electronic position sensing.
Quick checklist
The force is equal in both directions because of 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 supplies air to both chambers equally.
No, a plain double-rod cylinder drifts without live air. The 29 mm cushions only decelerate the piston near the end of the stroke. To hold a load securely, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
