The AirTAC Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD32X850S is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 850mm 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 SAUD32X850S is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder. A rod protrudes from both ends, meaning push and pull forces are identical at 345 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The extruded aluminum barrel makes it shorter than an ISO 15552 unit of the same bore. It features a 1/8" port and a built-in magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
This 32 mm bore model provides a safe working load of roughly 207 N and a vertical lift capacity of about 18 kg with a 2:1 margin. The rear rod is excellent for mounting a sensor cam. A Viton H seal option extends operating temperature to 150 C.

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 opposing grippers or forming tools simultaneously from one piston, ensuring perfectly matched timing without external linkages.
Lifts thin panels vertically using the dual rods to prevent twist and keep the load perfectly level throughout the 850 mm travel.
Uses the extended rear rod to trip a CMSG reed switch, confirming full retraction in tight spaces where front sensing is impossible.
When sizing this double-rod unit, note the equal both-ways force: the 32 mm bore yields 345 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the 40 mm bore provides 528 N; stepping down is unavailable as 32 mm is the smallest. Choose this twin-rod architecture when you need anti-rotation guidance, twin-tool driving, or back-end switch tripping. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, and LB foot styles, matching the AirTAC SC series. The -S suffix enables electronic position sensing. Because the 850 mm stroke is long, always use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load damage.
Quick checklist
Because both faces lose rod area, force is equal both ways: 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.
No. The adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke end; they do not lock it. For load holding on air loss, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
