Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X900
The AirTAC Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X900 is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 900mm 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.

About the Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X900
The AirTAC SAUD100X900 is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder. A rod exits both ends, meaning both faces use the rod-side piston area. This yields an identical push and pull force of 3681 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The extruded hard-anodized aluminum barrel keeps the unit shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore.
This 100mm bore model features a 1/2" port and a 900mm stroke. Because it lacks the -S suffix, this SKU cannot take a magnetic sensor. The twin-rod design provides anti-rotation guidance and lets you mount tooling on both ends. A Viton H seal option raises the operating ceiling to 150 C.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø100mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3682 N | 3682 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5154 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 751 kgf | |
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.

Where the Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X900 Is Used
Twin-Tool Machining
Drives two opposing machining heads simultaneously with equal 3681 N thrust, ensuring perfectly balanced part processing.
Synchronized Transfer
Shifts wide conveyor workpieces across a 900mm gap, maintaining parallel alignment via the double-ended rod structure.
Is the Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X900 the Right Cylinder?
Select this 100mm bore if you need substantial equal-both-ways thrust. Stepping down to the 80mm bore gives 2268 N each way at 0.5 MPa, while no larger standard bore exists in this series. The double-rod architecture is the right call for anti-rotation tasks, driving twin tools, or carrying a switch cam on the back rod. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, and LB foot styles, matching the AirTAC SC series. Because the 900mm stroke is long, always use external guides to prevent rod bending under side loads. Note that without the -S magnet option, you cannot fit CMSG or DMSG sensors.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB — same as SC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X900 FAQ
The force is equal both ways because a rod exits both ends. It delivers 3681 N at 0.5 MPa, 5153 N at 0.7 MPa, and 6626 N at 0.9 MPa. The 1/2" port feeds this 100mm bore.
No. A plain SAUD cylinder drifts without live air; the adjustable 29mm cushions only decelerate near stroke end. For a held load, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
