Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD32X165
The AirTAC Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD32X165 is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 165mm 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.

About the Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD32X165
The AirTAC SAUD32X165 is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder. A 12mm rod exits both ends, meaning push and pull forces are identical at 345 N each way when operating at 0.5 MPa. The extruded aluminum barrel keeps the unit shorter than a standard ISO 15552 cylinder of the same 32mm bore. It features a 1/8 inch port and M10x1.25 rod threads.
This twin-rod layout provides excellent anti-rotation guidance and lets you drive two tools at once. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG or DMSG sensors. Based on the 345 N output, the safe working load is roughly 207 N, which translates to a vertical lift capacity of about 18 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.

Where the Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD32X165 Is Used
Twin Tool Transfer
Drives two synchronized pick-and-place heads from opposite rod ends for mirrored part handling.
Guided Cutting Stop
Uses the inherent anti-twist rigidity of the dual rods to push a material stopper block without rotating.
Compact Ejector
Fits into narrow machine frames to eject small molded components equally well in both directions.
Is the Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD32X165 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 32mm bore model delivering 345 N both ways when you need precise non-rotating motion in a tight space. If you need less force, the smaller SAUD20 is not an option as the series starts at 32mm; if you need more power, step up to the 40mm bore which provides 528 N each way. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, and LB foot styles, matching the AirTAC SC series. The 165mm stroke is under the 300mm threshold, so external side-load guides are less critical, but always ensure axial alignment to protect the seals.
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 SAUD32X165 FAQ
Because the 12mm rod exits both ends, the force is equal in both directions: 345 N at 0.5 MPa, 483 N at 0.7 MPa, and 621 N at 0.9 MPa. It uses a 1/8 inch port.
No, a plain double-rod cylinder drifts without live air; the adjustable 21mm cushions only decelerate near the stroke ends. Use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for secure load holding.
