The AirTAC Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD32X175 is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 175mm 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 SAUD32X175 is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder. A 12mm rod exits both ends of the hard-anodized aluminum extruded barrel, meaning both faces use the rod-side area. This yields exactly 345 N of thrust and pull each way at 0.5 MPa. The unit is notably shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore.
This twin-rod geometry provides rigid anti-rotation guidance and lets you mount twin tooling or a switch cam on the back rod. The 1/8 inch port feeds a 30-800 mm/s speed range, while adjustable 21 mm cushions decelerate each end. Based on the 345 N output, expect a safe working load around 207 N, or a vertical lift capacity of roughly 18 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.

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 synchronized pickers from opposite rod ends to shuttle small electronics parts between test stations without rotational drift.
Raises and lowers a light 18 kg jig evenly using both rod faces, ensuring the platform stays parallel during vertical actuation.
Uses the protruding back rod to mechanically trip an external mechanical valve at the precise end of the 175mm stroke.
Choose this 32mm bore when you need 345 N of equal bidirectional force at 0.5 MPa. If your project requires less push, the smaller SC-series compatible bore lacks a direct SAUD equivalent below 32, but stepping up to the 40mm bore yields 528 N each way. The 175mm stroke is well within the 1000mm standard limit and under the 300mm threshold, so external side-load guides are less critical here. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, or LB foot styles. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet suffix, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
Quick checklist
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. The air cushions only decelerate the piston near the stroke ends; they do not lock the load. To prevent drift on air loss, you must fit an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
