The AirTAC SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD80X165 is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 165mm 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 SAUD80X165 is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder. A 25 mm rod exits both ends of the hard-anodized aluminum barrel, meaning both faces use the rod-side area. This yields exactly 2268 N of output force in both directions at 0.5 MPa. The 3/8 inch port and M20x1.5 rod thread handle the airflow and mounting for this 80 mm bore.
Because the extruded profile body lacks external spanning bars, it is notably shorter than an ISO 15552 unit of the same bore. The twin rods provide inherent anti-rotation guidance and let you drive two tools at once. This base SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG or DMSG sensors.

Double-rod model: the rod passes through the rear cover, so both piston faces lose rod area and push is shown at the annular-area value. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

Drives two synchronized machining heads from opposite rod ends, ensuring perfectly balanced feed rates without torsional deflection.
Pushes pallets from either side of a conveyor line using a single compact actuator, saving valuable machine footprint.
Applies 2268 N of equal clamping pressure on both up and down strokes to hold heavy assemblies firmly during work.
Choose this 80 mm bore delivering 2268 N each way when your mechanism requires strict non-rotating guidance or twin tooling. If you need less force, step down to the 63 mm bore (1402 N both ways); if you need more, the 100 mm bore provides 3681 N. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, and LB foot styles, matching the AirTAC SC series. At a 165 mm stroke, side loads are minimal, but always use external guides for longer travels. Since this specific model has no -S magnet, you must mount physical switches elsewhere or select a magnet-equipped variant for position sensing.
Quick checklist
The force is equal in both directions because rods protrude from both ends. It generates 2268 N at 0.5 MPa, 3175 N at 0.7 MPa, and 4082 N at 0.9 MPa on both the extend and retract strokes.
No, a plain double-rod cylinder drifts without live air; the 28 mm adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston near the stroke ends. You must add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve to hold a suspended load.
