The AirTAC Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD32X10S is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 10mm stroke, 1/8" 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 SAUD32X10S is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder featuring a 32 mm bore and a 10 mm stroke. Because the 12 mm rod exits both ends, the effective area is identical on each face, yielding an equal force of 345 N both ways at 0.5 MPa. The extruded aluminum barrel makes it shorter than a standard ISO 15552 unit of the same bore. This -S variant includes a piston magnet for position sensing.
With a 1/8" port and M10x1.25 rod thread, this unit provides a safe working load of roughly 207 N (about 60% of the 0.5 MPa rating). For vertical lifts, expect a capacity around 18 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. The 21 mm adjustable air cushions at both ends manage end-of-stroke deceleration, while the Viton H seal option extends operating temperatures up to 150 C.

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 small forming punches simultaneously from opposite rod ends, ensuring perfectly synchronized striking force of 345 N each way.
Secures thin sheet metal workpieces without twist, using the inherent torsional resistance of the dual-rod guide to maintain precise alignment.
Uses the protruding back rod to physically trip an external limit switch, while the internal -S magnet triggers CMSG reed sensors for dual confirmation.
When sizing this double-rod unit, the 32 mm bore delivers 345 N each way at 0.5 MPa. If your application requires less force, there is no smaller standard SAUD option, so consider adjusting your pressure. If you need more power, stepping up to the 40 mm bore provides 528 N both ways. Choose this twin-rod architecture when you need strict anti-rotation guidance, want to drive two tools at once, or need a rear rod to trip a switch. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, and LB foot styles, matching the AirTAC SC series. The -S magnet supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensors. Since the stroke is only 10 mm, side-load risks are minimal, but always guide external loads to prevent binding.
Quick checklist
The force is equal in both directions because the rod exits both ends. It provides 345 N at 0.5 MPa, 483 N at 0.7 MPa, and 621 N at 0.9 MPa. The 1/8" port supplies air to achieve these figures.
No, a plain double-rod cylinder drifts without live air; the 21 mm cushions only decelerate near stroke end. For true load holding, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
