The AirTAC Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD63X145 is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 145mm stroke, 3/8" 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 SAUD63X145 is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder with a 63mm bore and 145mm stroke. A rod protrudes from both ends, meaning both faces use the rod-side area. The output force is equal in both directions, delivering 1402 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The extruded aluminum barrel makes it shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore.
This unit features a 3/8 inch port and an M16x1.5 rod thread. Without the -S suffix, this SKU lacks a magnet and cannot take a CMSG or DMSG sensor. Based on the 1402 N figure, the safe working load is roughly 841 N, translating to a vertical lift capacity of about 71 kg with a 2:1 margin. For high-heat environments up to 150 C, specify the Viton H seal option.

Drives two synchronized machining heads from one piston, ensuring parallel cutting action without twist.
Powers opposing transfer arms that move parts simultaneously across a conveyor belt station.
Lifts pallets evenly using a central fixture, relying on the equal push and pull force to prevent binding.
Select this 63mm bore model when your mechanism requires true anti-rotation guidance or needs to drive two tools at once. It yields 1402 N both ways at 0.5 MPa. If you need less force, the 50mm bore provides 825 N; if you need more, step up to the 80mm bore for 2268 N. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, and LB foot styles, matching the AirTAC SC series. Since the 145mm stroke is under 300mm, side-load stress is minimal, but always guide the load externally for rigid travel. Remember that a plain cylinder drifts without live air, so fit an external rod lock for held loads.
Quick checklist
The force is equal in both directions because both faces lose rod area. It provides 1402 N at 0.5 MPa, 1962 N at 0.7 MPa, and 2523 N at 0.9 MPa. Never expect a larger single-rod push value from this double-rod unit.
No. This specific SKU lacks the -S magnet option, so it cannot operate CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. If you need back-end sensing or switch tripping via the rear rod, order the -S variant instead.
