Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X950S
The AirTAC SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X950S is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 950mm 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 SAUD100X950S
The AirTAC SAUD100X950S is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder. A 25mm rod protrudes from both ends of the hard-anodized extruded aluminum barrel, 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 profile body is noticeably shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same 100mm bore.
Because the rear rod extends outward, it serves as an excellent cam to trip CMSG or DMSG switches, enabled here by the built-in -S piston magnet. The 1/2 inch port feeds the chambers, while adjustable 29mm end cushions decelerate the payload. For high-heat environments up to 150 C, specify the Viton H seal option.

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 SAUD100X950S Is Used
Twin-Tool Machining Station
Drives two opposing machining heads simultaneously with equal 3681 N force, ensuring balanced material removal without rotational twist.
Dual-End Transfer Pusher
Uses both rod ends to push pallets on parallel conveyor lanes, keeping the 950mm stroke perfectly synchronized across the transfer bed.
Vertical Lift Fixture
Lifts heavy fixtures vertically up to 188 kg safely; the rear rod trips a DMSG sensor at the top to confirm payload arrival.
Is the Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD100X950S the Right Cylinder?
Select this 100mm bore model when your mechanism demands exact force symmetry and anti-rotation resistance. Stepping down, the 80mm bore delivers 2268 N both ways at 0.5 MPa; stepping up is not available as 100mm is the largest SAUD size. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, or LB foot styles, matching the AirTAC SC series footprint. The -S magnet allows solid rear-rod position sensing. Because the 950mm stroke is substantial, always use external linear guides to prevent rod bending under side loads.
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 SAUD100X950S FAQ
Force is equal both ways because the 25mm rod exits both ends. It generates 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 symmetric push and pull figures.
No, a plain double-rod cylinder drifts without live air; the 29mm cushions only decelerate near stroke end. For a locked load, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. The -S magnet here is strictly for CMSG/EMSG position sensing.
