Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD50X150S
The AirTAC Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD50X150S is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 150mm 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.

About the Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD50X150S
The AirTAC SAUD50X150S is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder. A piston rod protrudes from both ends, meaning both faces use the identical rod-side area. This yields exactly 825 N of thrust and pull at 0.5 MPa, ensuring perfectly symmetrical output. The 1/4" port and M16x1.5 rod thread equip the 50 mm bore.
Because the extruded aluminum barrel lacks external struts, this unit is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore. The -S suffix denotes a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. A computed buyer insight: the safe working load is roughly 495 N (about 60% of the 825 N figure), translating to a vertical lift capacity of approximately 42 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.

Where the Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD50X150S Is Used
Twin-Tool Transfer
Drives two opposing pick-and-place grippers simultaneously from one piston, keeping cycle times synchronized without requiring extra valves.
Cam-Actuated Sensing
Uses the extended rear rod to physically trip a CMSG or DMSG limit switch, providing a hard mechanical confirmation of the retracted position.
Anti-Rotation Pressing
Applies 825 N of perfectly balanced clamping pressure on both ends to prevent workpiece twist during light-duty assembly operations.
Is the Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD50X150S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 50 mm bore delivering 825 N equal force both ways if your task requires anti-rotation guidance, twin-tool driving, or back-end switch cam actuation. Sizing neighbors: the 40 mm bore provides 528 N each way, while the 63 mm bore offers 1402 N. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, and LB foot styles, matching the AirTAC SC series. The -S magnet enables position sensing. At a 150 mm stroke, side-load risks are moderate, but always use external guide rails to prevent rod binding if subjected to significant lateral forces.

- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB — same as SC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD50X150S FAQ
The output force is equal in both directions because both chambers contain a rod. It generates 825 N at 0.5 MPa, 1154 N at 0.7 MPa, and 1484 N at 0.9 MPa for both extension and retraction.
No, a plain double-rod cylinder drifts without live air; the adjustable 21 mm cushions only decelerate the piston near the end caps. For secure load holding, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
