Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X90S
The AirTAC Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X90S is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 90mm 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 SAUD100X90S
The AirTAC SAUD100X90S is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder. A 25 mm rod protrudes from both ends of the hard-anodized extruded aluminum barrel, meaning both faces use the rod-side area. This yields exactly 3681 N of output force each way at 0.5 MPa. The 1/2 inch port feeds the 100 mm bore, and the unit is noticeably shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same size.
Because the rod exits both ends, the rear shaft can carry a switch cam or drive a second tool simultaneously. This specific SAUD100X90S variant includes the built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. A Viton H seal option extends the operating temperature up 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 SAUD100X90S Is Used
Twin-Spindle Machining
Drives two opposing machining heads simultaneously with equal 3681 N force, ensuring perfectly balanced material removal without rotational twist.
Dual-End Transfer Pusher
Transfers heavy pallets from one conveyor lane to another using both rod ends, doubling throughput in compact packaging lines.
Is the Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X90S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 100 mm bore unit, look at the neighboring 80 mm bore which provides 2268 N both ways at 0.5 MPa. If you need more power, the 100 mm bore delivers 3681 N each way. Choose a double-rod configuration when your mechanism requires strict anti-rotation guidance, synchronized twin tooling, or back-end sensor actuation. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA, and LB styles, matching the AirTAC SC series. The included magnet allows CMSG or DMSG switches to track position. Since the 90 mm stroke is short, side-load risks are minimal, but always guide external loads to prevent binding. Remember that a plain cylinder drifts without live air; use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for secure load holding.
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 SAUD100X90S FAQ
The output force is equal in both directions because the 25 mm rod exits both ends. It produces 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 achieve these figures.
The dual-rod design provides strict anti-rotation guidance and allows the rear shaft to drive a second tool or actuate a CMSG switch. The adjustable 29 mm cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke end; they do not hold the load on air loss, so use a pilot-operated check valve for holding.
