The AirTAC Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD40X115S is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 115mm stroke, 1/4" 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 SAUD40X115S is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder featuring a 40mm bore and 115mm stroke. Because a 16mm rod exits both ends, the push and pull forces are identical, delivering 528 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 uses a 1/4" port and M12x1.25 rod thread.
This -S variant includes a built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. The rear protruding rod is perfect for mounting a sensor cam or tripping a switch. Based on the 528 N output, the safe working load is roughly 317 N, translating to a vertical lift capacity of about 27 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. A Viton H seal option can raise the 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 synchronized workpieces from opposite rod ends for simultaneous pick-and-place operations.
Prevents piston twist during vertical elevation of precision jigs using dual-rod geometric stability.
Uses the extended rear rod to physically trip an external limit switch or carry a magnetic sensor cam.
Choose this 40mm bore when you need 528 N of equal bidirectional force at 0.5 MPa. Sizing down, the 32mm bore provides 345 N both ways; sizing up, the 50mm bore offers 825 N. A double-rod design is the right call for anti-rotation guidance, driving twin tooling, or back-end sensing. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, and LB foot styles, matching the AirTAC SC series. At 115mm stroke, side loads are minimal, but external guides should always support the payload. The -S magnet enables precise position detection.
Quick checklist
Because the 16mm rod exits both ends, force is equal in both directions: 528 N at 0.5 MPa, 739 N at 0.7 MPa, and 950 N at 0.9 MPa. The air port is 1/4".
No. The adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke ends; it does not act as a brake. For load holding, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
