The AirTAC Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD32X300S is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 300mm 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 SAUD32X300S is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder. Because a rod exits both ends, the push and pull force is identical, delivering 345 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The extruded hard-anodized aluminum barrel makes it shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore. It features a 1/8" port and an M10x1.25 rod thread.
This unit includes the -S magnet option for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. The rear protruding rod is perfect for carrying a sensor cam or tripping a switch, while the twin rods provide anti-rotation guidance. Based on the 345 N output, the safe working load is roughly 207 N, translating to a vertical lift capacity of about 18 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.

Drives two synchronized pick-and-place grippers simultaneously, ensuring perfectly balanced part transfer without torsional twist.
Powers a non-rotating scoring blade that must stay perfectly perpendicular to the web across a 300 mm travel distance.
Uses the back rod to carry a switch cam, triggering an external vision system check exactly mid-stroke.
Choose the 32 mm bore when you need compact equal-force actuation. If your application requires less force, step down is not an option as 32 mm is the smallest available size; if you need more power, step up to the 40 mm bore which provides 528 N both ways at 0.5 MPa. A double-rod design is the right call for synchronized twin-tool driving or non-rotating anti-twist loads. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, and LB foot styles, compatible with the AirTAC SC series. Because this stroke is 300 mm, external guides are recommended to prevent rod bending under side loads. The -S suffix enables electronic or reed sensing.
Quick checklist
Because this is a double-rod cylinder, the force is equal in both directions. 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 both chambers.
No, a plain SAUD cylinder will drift if air is lost or the valve is centered. The adjustable 21 mm air cushions only decelerate the piston near the end of stroke. For load holding, you must add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
