The AirTAC Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X850 is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 850mm 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 SAUD100X850 is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder. A rod exits both ends, meaning push and pull forces are identical at 3681 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The extruded aluminum barrel is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same 100mm bore. It features a 1/2 inch port and M20x1.5 rod threads.
The 29mm adjustable air cushions at both ends only decelerate the piston near stroke end. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss, so use an external rod lock for secure load holding. With no -S suffix, this SKU cannot take a magnetic sensor.

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, ensuring perfectly balanced high-tonnage impact without rotational twist.
Powers opposing guide rails simultaneously on a packaging line, using the equal push and pull force to recenter products instantly.
Lifts heavy palletized loads straight up, relying on the dual rods to prevent rack binding and maintain precise vertical alignment.
Choose this 100mm bore delivering 3681 N both ways, or step down to the 80mm bore providing 2268 N. The double rod is ideal for anti-rotation guidance, driving twin tooling, or mounting a cam on the back end. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA, and LB types, matching the AirTAC SC series. At 850mm stroke, external guides are mandatory to prevent rod bending under side loads. Note this non-magnetic SKU cannot accept CMSG or DMSG switches.
Quick checklist
Because both faces have a rod, force is equal both ways: 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 both chambers.
No, this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet option, so it cannot take CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You would need an external mechanical cam or a separate sensor setup.
