The AirTAC Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD32X80S is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 80mm 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 SAUD32X80S 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 operated at 0.5 MPa. The extruded hard-anodized aluminum barrel makes it shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same 32mm bore. It features a 1/8 inch port and M10x1.25 rod threads.
This unit includes the -S magnet option for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. The rear protruding rod is excellent for mounting a sensor cam or tripping a switch. 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. For high-temperature environments up to 150 C, specify the Viton H seal.

Drives two parallel pick-and-place fingers simultaneously from one piston, keeping tooling perfectly aligned without twist.
Uses the extended back rod to physically trip a limit switch, confirming the blade reached the bottom of its 80mm travel.
Pushes a part forward while retracting a return arm backward, executing two assembly motions within a compact 32mm footprint.
Choose this 32mm bore delivering 345 N equal force when you need anti-rotation guidance, twin tooling, or back-end sensing. If your project requires less power, the smaller SAU-series single rod might suffice, but stepping up to the 40mm double-rod version yields 528 N each way. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, and LB foot styles, matching the AirTAC SC series. The -S suffix ensures electronic or reed sensors work perfectly. With an 80mm stroke, side loads are minimal, but always use external guides for longer travels.
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. Never expect a larger single-rod push value from this profile.
No. The adjustable 21mm air cushions only decelerate the piston near the end caps; they do not act as a brake. For load holding, you must install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
