The AirTAC Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD32X800 is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 800mm 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 SAUD32X800 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 identical rod-side piston area. This yields exactly 345 N of output force in both directions at 0.5 MPa. The extruded profile design is noticeably shorter than a conventional cylinder of the same 32mm bore. It uses a 1/8" port and M10x1.25 rod threads.
Because both ends carry a rod, the unit provides inherent anti-twist guidance and can drive two separate tools simultaneously. With a 345 N equal force, your safe working load is roughly 207 N, translating to a vertical lift capacity of about 18 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. Note this specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG or DMSG sensors. For high-heat environments up to 150 C, specify the Viton H seal option.

Drives two synchronized grippers at once, using the equal both-ways force to push and pull parts across a 800mm transfer line without twisting.
Powers a dual-edge slitting blade assembly where the second rod maintains straightness, preventing blade yaw over the long 800mm travel.
Ejects machined parts from both sides of a fixture simultaneously, utilizing the compact 32mm profile to fit within tight machine cells.
Choose this 32mm bore when you need 345 N of equal push and pull force at 0.5 MPa. If your project requires less force, step down to a smaller bore; if you need more, step up to the 40mm bore which provides 528 N both ways. A double-rod design is the right call for applications demanding anti-rotation stability, synchronized twin-tool driving, or mounting a switch cam on the back rod. Mounting hardware is limited to Basic, FA flange, and LB foot styles, matching the AirTAC SC series. Because this model has an 800mm stroke, you must use external guide rails to prevent rod bending and absorb side loads. This non-magnet SKU cannot host sensors; add the -S suffix for switch readiness.
Quick checklist
The force is equal in both directions because the 12mm rod exits both ends. It generates 345 N at 0.5 MPa, 483 N at 0.7 MPa, and 621 N at 0.9 MPa. The 1/8" port feeds both chambers equally.
No, a plain double-rod cylinder drifts without live air, and the 21mm adjustable cushions only decelerate near stroke end. For vertical load holding, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
