The AirTAC Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD63X80 is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 80mm 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 SAUD63X80 is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder with a 63 mm bore and 80 mm stroke. A rod protrudes from both ends, meaning both faces use the rod-side piston area. This yields exactly 1402 N of output force at 0.5 MPa in both directions. The extruded aluminum barrel keeps the total length shorter than a standard ISO 15552 unit of the same bore. It uses a 3/8 inch port and an M16x1.5 rod thread.
Because the second rod prevents piston rotation, this model is ideal for anti-twist guidance and driving twin tooling. A practical computed insight: the safe working load is roughly 841 N, and it can vertically lift about 71 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. This specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. For high-heat environments up to 150 C, you can specify the Viton H seal option.

Drives two matched forming tools simultaneously from opposite rod ends, ensuring perfectly synchronized contact on the workpiece.
Pushes a sorting flap on a packaging line without twisting, relying on the dual rods for strict rotational stability.
Raises and lowers a machining fixture with equal force both up and down, preventing sagging from unequal chamber areas.
Choose this 63 mm bore when your application demands equal 1402 N force both ways at 0.5 MPa. If you need less thrust, step down to the 50 mm bore which provides 825 N both ways. If you require more power, step up to the 80 mm bore delivering 2268 N. A double-rod design is the right call for synchronized twin-tool driving or strict anti-rotation needs. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, and LB foot styles, matching the AirTAC SC series. Since this 80 mm stroke is under 300 mm, side-load stress is minimal, but always guide the load externally on longer travels. Note that this non-magnetic version cannot host position switches.
Quick checklist
The force is equal in both directions because it is a double-rod design. It outputs 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, a plain SAUD cylinder does not hold a load without live air; the piston will drift and the adjustable cushions only decelerate near stroke end. For a held load, you must add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
