The AirTAC Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD63X15 is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 15mm 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 SAUD63X15 is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder with a 63 mm bore and a 15 mm stroke. A rod protrudes from both ends, meaning push and pull forces are identical at 1402 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The extruded aluminium barrel keeps the unit shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore. It uses a 3/8" port and an M16x1.5 rod thread.
Because both faces use the rod-side area, this cylinder delivers equal force in both directions: 1402 N at 0.5 MPa, 1962 N at 0.7 MPa, and 2523 N at 0.9 MPa. This yields a safe working load of roughly 841 N, or a vertical lift capacity of about 71 kg with a 2:1 margin. The twin rods provide inherent anti-rotation guidance. This SKU has no magnet, so it cannot accept magnetic sensors.

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 gripper jaws simultaneously via the twin rods, ensuring perfectly synchronized clamping without twist.
Executes a rapid 15 mm transfer push on a conveyor line where equal push and pull force prevents part jamming.
Mounts a stamping tool on the front rod and a secondary marking tool on the back rod to perform two operations in one cycle.
Choose this 63 mm bore when you need 1402 N of equal force both ways at 0.5 MPa. If you need less force, the neighbouring 50 mm bore provides 825 N both ways; if you need more, the 80 mm bore offers 2268 N. A double rod is the right call for anti-rotation, twin-tool driving, or carrying a switch cam on the back rod. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA, and LB styles, matching the AirTAC SC series. Since this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet option, it cannot support CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. The 15 mm stroke is very short, so side-load stress is minimal, but always guide external loads to prevent binding.
Quick checklist
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, the force is equal in both directions: 1402 N at 0.5 MPa, 1962 N at 0.7 MPa, and 2523 N at 0.9 MPa. It never produces a larger single-rod push value.
No. This specific SKU does not include a magnet (-S option), so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG magnetic sensors. You would need external mechanical switches or a different model with the magnet pre-installed.
